From FAQ of Usenetserver :

2. I received a "502 Maximum connections Exceeded." error. How many connections are allowed?

Our account options are broken down into 2 categories: High Speed and High Speed Plus. We allow a maximum of 10 connections for High Speed account and a maximum of 20 connections for High Speed Plus accounts. When your newsreader tries to open too many connections to the servers, this error will result. The error usually is not too serious. Just cancel the task you are trying to start, and wait until one finishes. If you are disconnected from your ISP, or if your news reader terminates improperly, the servers may need some time to recognize that the connection is no longer active.
