For the To The Max (TTM) and Block-products we offer the possibility you share your account with friends (saving you money as you can buy Usenet access together).
Below is an overview of the amount of people that can use Usenet at the same time with the same account.
Product | User limit | Max Conns | Explanation |
Stingy | 1 | 40 | Sorry, only you. |
To the Max (TTM) | 2 | 40 | You and a buddy of you |
Block | ∞ | 50 | Unlimited friends! |
NOTE: Please be aware that max conns is the maximum of connections you can have together. I.e. for TTM 40 conns would mean you can use 20 and your friend the remaining 20. (20+20=40)
