I'm on unlimited DSL with astraweb and for the past week or so I can only download off usenet at about 5-15KBs. Sometimes early in the mornings it can hit 180-300KBs but left downloading for a day it'll stop downloading altogether. Off normal websites everythings ok and I can download at about 180KBs.

I've done some googling and found some messages from 2006 that say TalkTalk are blocking or giving limited acces to P2P/Usenet. But up until recently things have been working reasonably well, at least well by Talk Talk standards. If anyone here is using astraweb are you experiencing problems or is it TalkTalk?

Thanks.
