Yep...me again folks,

And yet another newshoting issue; im in the uk, 10meg cable connection. For a while now ive been getting really lame speeds in the weekday evenings. (different issue to this one http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/newsgroups/t-newshosting-unlimitedisnt-131848 )

I originally put it down to NTL limitting me on downloads but this eve, after downloading nothing all day I got a little over 100k a second just now (usually 1000+).

So I decided to try changing my servers from newshosting to the NTL ones.

Speeds just about back to normal.

So, I change back to newshoting and try all the different ports they say to but still crappy speeds.

I know I should email tech support but I had such a nitemare resetting my password last time I thought I would try you guys first.

And yes, I know I should probably go to giganews but its twice the price.

Cheers

QP

Try checking your exchange to see if it is overloaded. Mine is at the minute so during peak times i sometimes download slower than normal.

Not having any issues over here, anyone try out the new NHXL plan (I guess its their highest retention plan) newshosting is offering? apparently you get a free T-shirt when you sign up :)
