i have no difficulty in using ftp to upload, i can quite merrily let it upload all day without running into any problems.
I did ask tech support wether port 119 was blocked, and was told that it wasnt.
The reason i use powerpost is because it posts in yenc. could use the regular non-yenc version, but tbh, i dont fancy the extra 33% extra added to the file size. Nor would the other *users* of usenet be pleased at having to download it.

I'm not asking the members here to judge me on what i do, wether they download binaries or not, i use a premium anonymous server anyway. I was just wondering why all of a sudden, my posts are failing.
Had to backfill quite a lot of posts, and again today had to reboot the box a few times.
is it possible to use a regular cable modem to connect to NTL rather than the STB?

Thanks Again for any input.
