Hi Mingzhou,

My advice, don't bother about mirror. It is useless.

Checked a few minutes ago, only 19 mirrors listed by Miktex compared to 97
good mirrors listed in CTAN.

Just find any CTAN mirror that is the nearest and fastest to you, and
download the whole Miktex folder.

Want to know why the CTAN mirror that you listed not in the official list?
See the whole thread here:

Thanks.
