[northeast] Poor speeds from Usenet-News.net ???

I purchased a 100G block this week, and am having mixed results. When I used it a few days ago I was getting about full downstream bandwidth using 5 or 6 connections (excellent!), but now I'm barely getting 500kB/sec on average, with horrible fluctuations and stalls to zero for long periods. Anyone else have an account with them and noticing similar? I'm using the non-SSL US server. Of course, I am using a FiOS connection, a 20 megabit connection.

You will have to contact the support area for this service. If you are getting good speedtest results, it has nothing to do with Fios.

That is not always the case. If one peering router is flapping it could cause a small number of sites to have problems. You'd have to do speed tests to a lot of areas repeatedly for your statement above to hold true.

KCrimson-
What server IP are you using??? On Wednesday of this week there was a negative change in routing to the West Coast (see my other post).

Re: [northeast] Poor speeds from Usenet-News.net ???

I BELIEVE it is on the west coast, as latencies are consistent with what I'm used to for west coast sites (~65ms) - the domain name is us-Usenet-News.net, and a traceroute follows. You'll notice that the traceroute is either hitting a firewall or a bad router, as I stopped it after it hits a dead end - it will keep hitting a nonresponsive "*" hop after the one that you see at the end, with very long pauses).

traceroute to cnews.wwwspace.net (208.49.82.60), 64 hops max, 40 byte packets

Edit: I was wrong - the ping times are more like 35ms to that domain name.

No, and that's very interesting. Do you have any links for information about this? I knew it was but a matter of time. Once the subscribers let the ISP's drop the ball and let a few specialized commercial providers handle most of the traffic it was bound to happen.

I thought it was on here a few weeks ago. Just one newsserver company, but I'm sure they found the smallest one who will cave so they can get some caselaw going and go after the others.

all I can tell you is that nntp is a whole other ball game.
you can upload through frog/nym servers and be totally annonymous, and since the data is daysi chained across multiple servers cuncurrently over many countries it can be downright hard to get someone doing piracy.

SCREW the RIAA and their threats, they stole from the artists, steal from the consumers, get paid by the adverstisers and us and still they want and have gained control of ALL digital devices and OS's

No they are suing ONE usenet provider who advertises their services as a means for pirating.

We had a router failure today. All is fixed now, but this event will effect service levels for the next several hours.

We are also aware that many of you are experiencing 400 errors. We are still uncertain of the cause of these errors but looking into them.
============================================================

that's what's going on seen few people blaming there ISP.

why are some posters so lazy that they can't read properly or even provide proper capitalization or punctuation marks when they attempt to troll

Why should I check a DIFFERENT Usenet provider for their status? READ the name of my provider usenet-news and the one you provided usenetserver can you see a difference "n00b"?

You couldn't even copy and paste properly, you lazy fool. What is "etwork Status"?
