r/usenet - Usenet Discussion

Long story short. I've been using trackers for nearly 10y now, time to stop. Signed with ThunderNews for 3US per month.

I have a 2Gbps FTTP (AS210892) which downloads at 240mb/s as it should. Now with Usenet I get around 100-140 to secure server and 170-190 with NON. Why such differences,which ports to use? Is it CGNAT to blame or the server?

Thanks

After logging in, I get nothing but a blank page. Have never run into this with Nzbs.in before. Not sure if it's down or what. Anyone know?

Last October I purchased a year at Ninja to try out as my first steps into Usenet. Once I figured out what I was doing, I purchased 2 years with the black friday sale they had last year.

I tried out a couple different indexers as well. Fast forward to a year later, I've found the indexers I plan on renewing. I received an email from Ninja a bit ago saying my account was coming up for renewal. I decided not to renew it at that time. I truthfully forgot that I had purchased the two year black friday special, until I checked my notes. And now my account is closed because I didn't renew, so I'm not really sure the best way to go about this. Somehow my two years I purchased must not have been applied to my account

I have the paypal receipt with all the information. I emailed admin@(insertwebsite), which I found on another reddit post, but haven't heard back yet.

Anyone else know of a way of contacting them? I no longer have access to their discord.

I contacted support 2.5 days ago for a refund and still haven't gotten a response.

So your subscription ends 2-3 months after BF the following year and you miss out on these great deals?

***Solved by NH. Once they were aware of my issue it was resolved in 10min. ****

Hello,

I received an error in SABNZB today stating “Failed login for server news newshosting com [502 Authentication Failed]”. When I go to NH website and login, I see messages that my account is “inactive” and “reactivate your account today". My account has been running fine without issue up until maybe a few hours ago. My account is paid up until Jan of 2026. I am not sure what's going on.

What do I need to do to resolve this?

How can I contact them? When I try to create a ticket nothing seems to happen button just blinks but no confirmation that a ticket was sent There doesn't seem to be any other way to contact them. I have been using NH for at least 5 years and I have never ever needed an issue addressed. I never even knew there was a contact support / create ticket spot on the webpage... LOL!

Any help or assistance in getting this resolved would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone else having the problem of the customer portal login not working?

I go to the website and it loads fine. Click login and I just get a blank screen. Tried safari, chrome and opera. All same issue.

I am looking at the deal with DS. One option is 1000 API hits and the other is unlimited. Wouldn’t 1000 be enough?

As a low usage user I’m truly missing block accounts with highest retention.

And usenetfarm is even failing at 2years old posts.

Plus always loved Blocknews offering direct crypto payments.

This is stackable (wait until it's been processed before adding another) and available to existing Wine / Ale roles.

i’m wondering if there is any indexer that specializes in onlyfans content. the ones i use basically have nothing.

would love to have some recommendations.

6 months ago this community had ~100.000 useneters. Now we are almost 140.000 and we still growing.

Guys, just simply remember the first rule of Usenet and thats all. Have a good day to all.

As I am new to usenet. Sorry for this noob question. Can anyone please tell me why do people buy blocks?? I mean when I get unlimited plans of NH or eweka then why to buy 1TB blocks? I can use unlimited bandwidth then why to buy 1TB? Sorry I am new to usenet. Please clarify.

Recently I found out the that some of the stuff I need is no where (DS, geek, scenesNZB, althub, planet) but was available in nzb.su

I am thinking to buy VIP but wanted to check if they ever do any deals or sale ? I checked past few BF deals and couldn't find it..

shall I wait or just get VIP now?

The original post: /r/usenet by /u/radar2375 on 2024-11-12 23:14:27.

Does anyone use Usenet for other than the obvious? Does anyone go on the boards? Or what else could it be used for?

The original post: /r/usenet by /u/BeginningEmotional49 on 2024-11-12 18:33:41.

Anyone else having issues getting signed up for the Eweka BF deal? I’ll input all my payment info and when I click on get now it says page not found. Nothing charged to my CC either.

Hello all,

I’m really sorry for this question I’m sure it’s been asked before and may be tedious for most.

I am confused about the backbones - I’m in Europe and I currently have Tweaknews what other provider (s) will compliment it?

Thanks,

Credit where its due, Ive been with Newshosting for a fair few years, I don't hammer the service as I have other providers at the same priority.

Got an email yesterday to say the price was increasing by $2 per month (Im on the BF $20 deal from a few years back)

I emailed them to clarify when this increase will take place and they apologized and removed the increase from my account!

Cannot argue with this, thank you Newshosting! top service.

Not too long ago i made a post with a guide I made to the arr-stack, specifically on a Synology NAS running DSM 7.2 and it focused mostly on torrenting with a VPN. You can find it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/1g44l4p/full_guide_to_install_arrstack_almost_all_arr/

Anyway, I have recently gotten into usenet, and have completly replaced all my torrenting with usenet, as it's easier, faster and more reliable. I am therefore wondering if there would be any interest if I made a guide to setup the arr-stack but with the purpose of usenet instead of torrenting? Please comment any feedback you may have.

TL;DR: Should I make a guide for the arr-stack but with a focus on usenet and how we can use it with radarr, sonarr etc?

Hi everyone, I plan to get my first time usenet provider + indexer. I'm mostly interested in German dubbed children's series. From my research I plan to use the Newshosting black Friday deal at $1,67/mo and stack that. As my indexer I read that https://scenenzbs.com/search/ is the best for German content, so I plan to use that and maybe https://nzbgeek.info/dashboard.php lifetime when there is a black Friday deal. Do you have any suggestions or info if any of these have good deals?

The original post: /r/usenet by /u/Gullible_Eagle4280 on 2024-11-12 07:28:51.

Or a combination? My current provider is on HW Media backbone and I am able to max out my gigabit connection. But I’m looking for a Black Friday deal because if I let my subscription renew it’s triple the $$$ that I paid last year. So I’m wondering do I just look for a deal from a provider that’s on the same HW Media backbone or does that matter?

The original post: /r/usenet by /u/Insanelysick on 2024-11-12 07:20:41.

It seems that those of us on the perpetual €2.99 deal are finally being pushed to change. Sad times. https://i.imgur.com/ISMYbZv.jpeg

So I’ve been in the Usenet world for about 6 months now to fully automate my Arr Linux ISO collection.

My current provider is Eweka, supported by NZB Planet (12M) + NZB Geek (lifetime)

I occasionally get bad health + no searchers on obscure searches & the 3x’s.

My question is should I just stick with what I’ve got, or is there a benefit to expanding upon this setup?

If so, what would the community suggest?

The error generally happens several times in a row and intermittently during a download. My DL will often start at max speed(1gig) then within 10 seconds immediately drop to nothing for about 30-60 seconds. It will continue doing this through the DL many times. Here is the error message.

"Failed to connect: [WinError 10060] A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond"

The error first started with Newsgroup Ninja several months ago until it annoyed me enough to look for another provider and ended up with Newsdemon, which actually gave me a little faster speeds(From 110MB/s to 133MB/s) but the same error was still happening over and over. I had set newsdemon to higher priority with Ninja as a backup, using SSL and downloading with SABnzb with max connections set to 50. With newsdemon, I also started getting a new error of too many connections being attempted(75) even though I have it set to 50 max. This never happened with Ninja and seems to mostly occur if I set multiple downloads in a queue.

Has anyone else experienced this and know any possible fixes? I'm going to reach out to support for the providers for more help. Cheers.

I’m finally trying to migratefrom X news. In newsbin pro I can’t figure out how to download all the groups from the server. if I search for a group, it doesn’t find all of them and it only finds a couple. For example of searching for multimedia only finds two groups in news has been but X news has many.

How do I get news Ben pro to download all the groups from the server (regardless of their politically correctness )?
