Check to make sure you are using:

news-server.kc.rr.com

...which resolves into one of three servers. You might try going through
the numerical address of each one to see which one is quickest, but that 
always works for me.

The newservers have always been up and quicker than anything I have ever
seen before, but other people apparently have much different experiences.
