or just use par files to fix it..if u have enuff blocks to fix it

the problem just started happening, within the last week. But nothing is changed on the machine or on the newsgroup client.

Are you getting server timeout errors, server 'no such article' errors, client 'failed CRC check' errors, or some other kind or error?

Server timeout errors: Try reinitializing your router.
No such article errors: Get a premium server; fewer of those errors with better servers.
Failed CRC check errors: Repair with PAR2 files if there are enough.
Other kinds of errors: Firewall or antivirus might be interfering.
