Re: News server dead

Agreed - the NTL speeds have been awful just recently. I'm hoping it's just a coincidence that this happens just as they remove the cap from 1mb and 2mb customer and that NTL aren't going to throttle newsgroup access in future.

I am contemplating trying a proper usenet supplier for a month or so until NTL get their servers sorted (or not) and Newshosting look like the best deal. There have been a few people here posting that they heard NTL and Newshosting don't get along too well, but only the original poster has first hand experience of it and several others say they're using it no problems. Anyone else actually experienced problems with Newshosting or can point me towards other people that have (maybe in other threads or other sites?)

Cheers.
