I just recently built a new computer using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

I have been attempting to install all different kinds of packages (Google Chrome and Steam mainly). Whenever I attempt to run (sudo apt-get update) it runs up until the point of: 

0% [Connecting to security.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1360:8001::21)]

and it just stays there.... Please assist.
