Port 119 Blocked? Here’s How to Reconnect

When Port 119 is blocked, it typically means your network administrator or Internet provider has restricted standard Usenet traffic. Tweaknews supports a variety of alternate ports to work around these restrictions.

 

Choose from the following options:

  • Non-SSL: 80, 81, 8000

  • SSL: 443, 563, 8080

Update your newsreader's server settings to one of these ports based on whether you prefer encrypted access.

 

For improved privacy and wider network compatibility, SSL ports are generally more reliable, especially on restricted networks.
