Understanding Tweaknews Bandwidth and Speed Restrictions

Tweaknews subscription plans include unlimited monthly data access. Block plans provide a fixed amount of access based on the size of the block purchased. Once the full block is used, access will pause until another block is added to the account.

Tweaknews offers three subscription plans:

• Fast: Includes unlimited monthly access with speeds up to 50 Mbit.

• Lightning: Includes unlimited monthly access with speeds up to 100 Mbit.

• Ultimate + VPN: Includes unlimited monthly access with no speed limits and access to the Tweaknews VPN.

There is no speed throttling imposed by Tweaknews outside of plan limitations. However, actual speeds may vary depending on your Internet service provider (ISP) or local network conditions. If you experience slower access speeds, it may be due to ISP throttling of Usenet traffic.

Tweaknews does not impose access limits on subscription plans. However, some Internet providers may enforce their own limits or charge additional fees for high usage. Keep this in mind when planning to access large quantities of data, as Tweaknews is not responsible for any additional charges from your provider.

To help prevent speed restrictions from your ISP, the Ultimate + VPN plan includes access to the Tweaknews VPN. Using the VPN can often bypass these limitations by encrypting your traffic and preventing ISPs from identifying Usenet activity.

All plans include access to the full article retention available on the Tweaknews network.

Tips

• Monitor usage if you’re on a block plan to know when you’re nearing the limit.

• Subscription plans offer unlimited monthly access, with speed tiers based on plan type.

• Be aware of your Internet provider’s data policies, especially if you plan to access large volumes.

• Use the Tweaknews VPN to avoid ISP throttling that can affect Usenet speeds.
