On the first few occasions it seemed to me that my local network could be at fault, but it's _almost_ reliably reproducable in qemu, virtualbox and even on bare metal and is not limited to myself (check the channel logs with some good search queries). So it might be worth looking into. The installed system does not have this problem after a reboot.
