EDIT: It seems to have sorted itself out now, support from Frugal has been great, sorry for wasting anyone’s time.

Hello,

I just bought Frugal Usenet and thinking about getting a refund.

I was previously on Tweaknews but cancelled due to them doubling the price after 4 years.

On Tweaknews I would get around 80-88 MB/s download.

On frugal I’m only getting 15.

The other issue I’m having is I’m getting a lot more “missing articles” on Frugal. Stuff I could download on tweaknews I cannot on Frugal even with the bonus server.

Am I doing something wrong or do you guys recommend another provider? I tried messing with the connections. I used 60 on Tweaknews and that worked well but I’ve tried 40-100 connections on Frugal and it hasn’t made any improvement.
