Guys-
I have been using free and public access to newsgroup for about a
year or so, since attbi stopped providing the access. I got tired of
using these free and public access. They are completely unreliable.
So, I wanted to know what kind of access do you guys use, or recommend
one? I have a bunch of homebuilt questions because I am preparing to
make my dream become reality. But, first thing first: I need to secure
the access to you guys. So help me here? Any suggestion?

I've been using these guys -- http://news.cis.dfn.de/ -- for a few
years. Always there, responsive, works well with Netscape7/Mozilla
newsreaders...

... no binary groups though.

Seconded -- I've been using them for a couple years too and I've had
problems accessing the server maybe once or twice. If you want binaries,
then by all means try someone else but even some of the for-pay usenet
services are not as good at text groups than the free cis.dfn people.
