Hi all

Any other news site than news.saix.net to dl from using WiMax from Mweb?

Where else are you guys dl'ing from?

Well, your MWEB account is MWEB, but IS has a news server. Of course you will have to have an IS account for that. Axxess has a news server that mirrors Giganews.
 
Well what's the problem with the SAIX newsserver, if you're on an uncapped trial it must be great. You won't be able to use the IS server, you can only use your own ISP's server.

The alternative is to use a international one that you have ot pay for or download from Rapidshare, Megaupload etc etc
 
Hi

Well a previous post on the WiMax trial says that P2P dl'ing is dead slow. Seems that torrent are throttled.

SO I was looking for a work-around or some other dl sites via http etc

why the hell is it throttled

i thought they were trying to put the network through it's passes
 
Yeah, also tried using torrents, but it takes forever. Been using rapidshare... bought a year account a while ago and it works perfect. I get speeds of around 50Kb/s and you can find anything on rapidshare. Uncapped is great - i just hope the trial doesnt stop anytime soon. I do about 25 gigs a week.....easy, easy
