Access to news groups with a broadband package!?

Jameshavoc — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 05:47:16 GMT

Hello

I was wondering why BT do not offer access to news groups with their broadband packages. I know a lot of other ISP do offer this free with some broadband packages.

Is there a possibility in the future that existiing BT business total customers could be offered free newsgroup access?

hello,

you can setup grabit for an acces to newsgroups 🙂

name the server "btopenworld" in server properties and the hostname will be "news.btopenworld.com"

the only problem is that you can only grab 3 connections at a time and the download is limited for me @ 174Kb/sec :'(

But it's always going at this speed so enjoy it 🙂

see ya
