What are Concurrent Connections / Streams?
Concurrent connections, also known as streams or simply connections, refers to a news client establishing many connections to our servers at the same time. This allows you browse newsgroups while articles are being downloaded, and generally helps saturate your connection completely. Download Speeds Download speeds rely primarily on the maximum speed of your service and the route data takes from our servers to your computer. Our service is capable of employing the full bandwidth of most consumer broadband connections, but if you are physically distant from our servers or have any high latency hops, your download speed may diminish. How Accounts Are Billed All accounts automatically renew monthly and can be renewed early in our Member Center. Upon renewal, we will bill the credit card on record for the account. If the transaction does not complete successfully, the account will enter a suspended state. It will remain in this state until we are instructed to attempt the transaction again,
