Fast and reliable Works just good and fast, and is relatively cheap. One disadvantage though: max 1 IP can be used at the same time, which can cause some trouble with owning 2 houses, I hope that will be changed in the future. For example you can use 50 connections, so maybe it shall be that you can use 25 connections on the first IP and 25 connections on the second IP.

Upgrade from Astraweb Tested this as I had been running astraweb for some time. Extra 30ssl connection (50 total) make downloads that little bit faster and have had a reliable download experience so far. Price is also more competitive compared to other providers.

Newsdemon upgraded their servers in… Newsdemon upgraded their servers in late 2020 so they are now their own backbone. They are also supposed to be adding a second US based server farm early in 2021. This is a great move for the usenet industry and helps keep the industry alive longer. Their previous provider has been rapidly buying up websites in an attempt to create a majority and raise prices on everyone. My service level has not changed much at all after I logged in and re-downloaded all the headers (the article header numbers changed after their move). I think I may actually be faster than before but it is hard to tell. The support team worked with me to help get this done and I can thank Brent for being very patient and helpful with me.

I am impressed! I am impressed! Having been a customer at Giganews since 2006, I realized that a) their retention time was getting worse and worse and b) they charged me USD29.99 monthly even though new customers could sign up for 21.99. Old files (+5 years), that I thought was lost forever, suddenly appeared and downloaded perfectly on Newsdemon. At full speed (60 MB/sec on a VPN-connection). And at a much more competetive pricing. Goodbye Giganews - good day Newsdemon. Well done!
