    Out of interest, will I be able to access the NTL cable usegroups on a virgin cable connection?
    Yes. It's the same thing (assuming you were with NTL previously). Virgin took over.

    The news server is 'news.ntlworld.com' and your username and password are the ones you use for your email and other NTL account logins.
  • I have found the BT News Server, but using Gravity it won't let me log on. Do I need a Username and Password does anyone know?

    Si I tried my ISP (BT) - One girl said 'Whats a News Server?' and I got passed to her collegue who was like 'I will ask are product specialist and came back saying, yep the address you gave is the correct one (thanks!) and we think you most probaly need your main email address and log on password'

    Tried and didn't work

    So use Google Groups post #9 and post your question on there.

    Never used google groups before - but it seems to have all the news groups I want! So don't need a news reader now (unless it would be better to use a news reader for some reason?)
