ps - Bill, looking at your screenshots that's a fair few copies of Ubuntu you've downloaded
Indeed
And for anyone who uses Newshosting. these two screen shots have just been done now. They show the same file being downloaded from Newshosting and from Giganews.
My feeling is that newshosting are not giving out the full story. There has been no jiggery pokery with these shots.
my ip is 82. and i have used both Nh and GN both dropped to about 600k on my 10 meg line both had worked fine in the past just the last few weeks i been swapping and testing them both only way to get NH to full 10 meg is to open more slots like 15-20 but then they tell you offf :>
they told me to use 10 slots on port 9000 still sux at 600k tried ports 7000 8000 119, starts off fine then drops to half speed...

Re: "Punishment" IP ranges
Ive found that i need to use different ports to newshosting at different times of the day. Im now maxing out my connection at almost 3pm sunday which was unheard of before, but if i leave it on the current port and try downloading at 7pm the speed will be shocking.
I have to change to a different port at night time, i still cant max out my connection but i get about 800 - 900k/sec on 10mb which is more than good enough.
