BBYW Pro - Usenet is Gold?

Hi,
According to the 'How we manage the network' box, Usenet traffic is classified as Gold on BBYW Pro - is this really the case?
I don't use online gaming at all, but if it makes Usenet usable I'm switching over.
If Usenet is Gold, does this also mean it won't grind to a halt at midnight?  I've seen transfers go from 650K/s to 2K/s bang on midnight.
Thanks.
Alan.

In theory no, however I do not use Usenet so can't comment on the actual reality. I know when I was consider Pro Plusnet were instant that no traffic was defined as Silver or Bronze as per their website.

Hi there,
On BBYW Pro, all traffic is Gold, regardless of the protocol being used. Smiley
