Lag only when playing on this server

Post by buruguduy »

My net seems to have selective lagging... I get up to 800kbps speed on speedtest but whenever I play on this certain WoW server, its so lag it's unplayable. I asked all my friends on the same isp as mine and they don't have this problem (though they did a few months back) and eventually it came to me too...

Normally I'd have 1 second delay but this time it just stops for like 10 seconds at a time and goes on again and it keeps doing that every 5 seconds forever...

Here's the tracert... If anyone knowledgeable in this area, please advise.

Thank you. Solutions or better yet, an explanation of the root of the problem would be highly appreciated

one of the routers outside your network in your route to the server is messed up. Call your ISP and tell them or show them this trace. ISP's will call the telco that owns the offending router and let them know that it's screwed up. Nothing you can do on your end.

Typical, I play on Tibia and a lot of the same whiney crap goes on endlessly over there too.
Funny how a game seems bring out the maturity level of a twelve year old in what may otherwise be considered reasonable adults.

Just tell the noobs to STFU and go on is about all one can do.

Or you could stoop to there level, which I've had to resort to once or twice, and PK em at every opportunity to make them STFU
I Suffer therefor I exist,,
