<p><code>sudo pip3 install scikit-learn</code> (any module really just using most recent attempt)</p>

<pre><code>sudo pip3 install -U scikit-learn

sudo -H pip3 install -U scikit-learn

sudo -H pip3 --default-timeout=200 install -U scikit-learn

sudo python3 -m pip install scikit-learn
</code></pre>

<p>every command and any combination of the above results in the same error: Read timed out. The error always occurs at the same point (scikit-learn happens at 24%). I am using the latest version of pip(8.1.2) and I am on ubuntu mate 16.04. The exact error is:</p>
