I'll take a guess this is more you're usenet provider having an issue then rogers doing anything. My usenet is working fine. |

| reply to Dvella21
I just did a download at 19mb/s so it is likely your usenet provider that is the culprit |
|
| Hey I just tried 3 providers out giganews newshosting and usenetserver . They all start around 10MB/s then gradually go to 200KB/s. What is a good provider and what port should they be on. |

What reader are you using? Also, if the file is already been dcma'd, this can be happening. Saw it a few times lately. Seems like I am getting it, then all the sudden, nothing, when I looked closer, found out why. |
|
| I was just using supernews. i tried 4 of them n they all cancel. i tried downloading national geographic shows n non of them would finish downloading. |

Usenet hasn't really been throttled in Canada. As for the speeds, it sounds like a copyright owner has done a dcma on the stuff. This is exactly what you are seeing. Try downloading a Linux distro and see what happens. |

| Sabnbz astraweb. Starts out at 4.5mbs. Drops to 1.3. After2 minsl. On all downloads. Tried everything. Ports. Servers. Number of connections. Hitron modem on dmz. Nothing helps |

| OK, not sure how I can explain this any easier, if you start to download something, then it stops, or slows right to a crawl, depending on which reader you are using, odds are what you are downloading has been removed, its gone, period. You cannot download it. There are many links about things being removed from usenet. Its got nothing to do with Rogers.
Download something that isn't copyright protected, and come back and let us know your results. |

| Good place to start would be the newsreader log to verify this. If removals, it would be full of errors showing this.
