If you haven't already - you can download from both the US server and the European server and from alternative server addresses. I use both EU and US addresses on my news server.
A search for the alternative addresses for Usenetserver gives -
UsenetServer - Usenet Server Addresses
IPv4 (US servers) - news.usenetserver.com
IPv6 (US servers) - news6.usenetserver.com
Available Unencrypted ports: 20, 23, 25, 119, 3128, 7000, 8000 and 9000
SSL (Encrypted Access) ports: 563, 443 and 8080
Usenetserver has some alternative server options that might help in troubleshooting. You are free to experiment with these to try to get better connectivity. The same ports above will apply to these servers...
IPv4 (US servers) - news-us.usenetserver.com
IPv6 (US servers) - news-us6.usenetserver.com
IPv4 (NL servers) - news-eu.usenetserver.com
IPv6 (NL servers) - news-eu6.usenetserver.com
