NEW... Included with your ADSL Local Only service:
1) News Servers - SAIX news servers now mirror the very popular GigaNews servers. You have free access to this if you a Axxess DSL customer. Simply use news.axxess.co.za (Port 119) with any of your favorite News Group reading programs.

Acording to this you have free access to Giganews but i'm not sure how to login?

Thanks

no login to giganews, you use the saix news server and that will enable you to download as if you were connected to giganews, but now at registered giganews connection speeds nor as many as 8 concurrent connections rather saix at the moment is 3 max connections and then *if* its up anything from 50Kbps up to 400Kbps, but normally just around 60-90...

nzb from a nzb searcher thing like newzleech or newzbin for example.

you will also be needing a newsreader grabit is the for free and ok, but newsbinpro is allot better - it costs money though...

Yes I noticed that yes most redirect too saix and IS its kinda obvious but those redirection doesnt work. Like news.telkomsa.net news.cybersmart.co.za news.axxess.co.za they all resolve to news.saix.net but they dont connect but when I use news.saix.net it connects. So all those redirections dont work for me. Rather go direct
