Re: Usenet still up the spout after upgrades.

I assume the news about the news server is that there is no news available?
My latest attempt shows - no news...

No Usenet for almost a week!

Come on PlusNet please sort out the usenet problem, it's been here for almost a week and hardly ever gets updated on the service status page. It only affects users with IP's of 212.159.x.x, and I fall into one of those....
Ticket has been raised as per the service status - 24664590

212.159.47.11  here will still not connect with '480' authentication error.
This is getting tedious now, it has been a week for something that was supposed to be a day.
Do I get a discount on my monthly fee now?

Alan, you would be better PM'ing your IP rather than allowing all and sundry to see in the main forum (modify your post above).

Re: Usenet still up the spout after upgrades.

Morning all,
Assuming you have raised a ticket about your issues then I should be able to have access restored for you all at some point this morning. Apologies for the continued inconvenience on this one. It's been a pain I know Sad

It's a bad idea to specify a time  Grin
Usenet is still down and it's 18 minutes into the afternoon...

Are the performance issues also being addressed Bob?  Message body download is still very slow.

Re: Usenet still up the spout after upgrades.

Everybody who raised a support ticket should now have access restored. Maurice, there shouldn't really be any performance issues TBH. I wonder if the traffic's being prioritised correctly?
I'll run a quick Wireshark capture.
Edit - seems like it's in the Gold traffic queues which is where it should be
