I believe I tried it without updates enabled, but I'm not sure now.
I was also fighting with getting anaconda to use a proxy (weird office
Cisco firewall issue slowing downloads from the Internet dramatically,
but a local proxy outside the firewall works fine).
Try
echo "0" >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_sack
and see if that cleans up your Cisco issue. It can have a significant
effect on ssh, scp and sftp transfers--perhaps yours as well (we use
a Cisco Pix).
