Usenet Provider that supports 100mbit
 

Hi guys,

Is anyone able to max out their 100mbit line on their usenet provider? If so which provider are you with? I'm guessing Giganews can do that but Easynews seems to average 6-7 mega bytes a sec.

I'd rather not go for Giganews since they cost 3x more than the competition.

Thanks,

Thanks for the suggestion. Does anyone use supernews on their 100mbit connections?

Edit: sorry redundant question since they're a GN reseller!

Signed up with them, unfortunately I don't think it was the provider that was the issue. Even when I'm using all 30 connections from supernews and 20 from easynews at 03:00 in the morning I still only got between 6 and 8 mega bytes/sec.

Something is messed up then as i only use 5 connections to get 30mbit, and could probably use less.

Using ssl over port 443?

Yup, if I don't it's a crawl in the day-time.
