I use Newsdemon and my ISP is Sky.
Up until about 3 weeks ago I was able to download at 900 KB/S but now it's dropped right down and seems to max out at 180 KB/S.
I'm 99% certain it's not Newsdemon so it must be an issue with Sky. Does anyone know what the problem might be? I tried calling them but their customer service line isn't the most helpful!!

USN is a junk provider.
They were one of the best, then about six months ago they started having "issues" and have been having them on and off ever since.
If you do a search of the forum you will see they are one of the most complained about Usenet providers.

INTERNET DOWNSTREAM - 1,300kb MINIMUM
USUALL SPEED FROM NEWSDEMON - 1,300kb MINIMUM
Hello,
Since yesterday or even maybe the day before I have been reaching maximum downstream of 200kb from newsdemon server (all three useast, uswest, europe).
I have now been with newsdemon for maybe longer than 12 months and my latest membership runs out end of this month I am sure. Well then since I joined newsdemon my service has 70% been good 15% acceptable 15% sh*t.
Thanks

i just joined with NewDemon, I was getting 170 kb/s...horrible. Now i'm hardley gettin 1kb/s it might be my ISP which is Telus but I can download up to 300kb/s with torrents.
Can anyone help me set it up, maybe i've messed something up. BTW I have a 20 connections, unlimited SSL account is there something else i have to do for that account besides only download from us-secure.newsdemon.com I also live in canada, could that be a problem??
Any and all help appreciated, sorry for my noob-ness.

There's some chance that it's your location, there's some chance that it's newsdemon or your ISP.
I believe newsdemon has live support. I would use it.
If that doesn't work, I would recommend an account at giganews for about $3 more a month. 200 days retention, zero downtime, zero speed problems.

I'm not 1000% sure Comcast.net isn't part of the problem but after doing an extensive test series I can definitely see that Usenet server is most of the problem. As a consequence I discontinued sercvice -- vote with your feet.
