Frequently asked questions
What is Usenet, and what do I need to use Ngroups?
Usenet is a distributed network of discussion groups and articles. To use Ngroups, you need a compatible newsreader and an access option. After purchasing access, enter the supplied NNTP details in your newsreader.
Where do I find my NNTP login details?
Sign in and open your Ngroups dashboard to find your NNTP username and password. These details connect your newsreader to Usenet and are separate from the login you use for the Ngroups website.
Should I choose a subscription or a prepaid block?
Choose a subscription for ongoing unlimited Usenet access. Choose a prepaid block when you want a fixed amount of data without starting a subscription. Your dashboard shows the remaining balance, and you can purchase another available block when it runs out.
Why is my newsreader showing "502 Authentication failed"?
A 502 error usually means that the Usenet server did not accept the connection. Make sure you are using your NNTP details rather than your website login, copy them exactly, and check that your subscription is active or block access is available. If the error continues, create a support case from your dashboard.
Why are some articles missing or incomplete?
An article can be incomplete because individual parts expired, were removed, or did not propagate to the available servers. Refresh your newsreader's headers and try again. If many current articles are affected, check the service status or contact support.
How do I manage or cancel my subscription?
Sign in and open Billing to view invoices, update your payment method, or cancel your subscription. Cancellation stops future renewals, and access continues until the end of the paid period unless a refund ends it earlier. You can request a refund from support within 15 days of signup or renewal if the service has not been used during that time. Technical problems and fraudulent charges are covered by the refund exceptions in our Terms of Service.
