Re: shaw usenet
If you ping your shawnews server it is now returning a newsfarm.iad.highwinds-media.com as the actual server. They are farming it out.
Unfortunately the speed is terrible and all over the place. I used to be able to run the edmonton calgary, victoria and winnipeg servers all at once to get 10 Mbps, now I'm lucky to hold 2 Mbps. Retention and completion are far better though. I've always had a giganews account to fill in the holes, may not need it anymore. |
