Ever since the routing downtime yesterday evening, World of Warcraft is lagging - normally it's 50ms, since last night it's 200-600ms and often unplayable. Problem persists this morning.

I can confirm this. There seems to be a problem with the peering to Telia. I'm currently sitting on 400+ latency which halves if I use open DNS.

[EDIT] As a matter of interest, can any actually tracert into the Telia network? I can't.

Contact support, it sounds like a routing problem.

I'm fairly sure routing used to go directly to Telia from Idnet?

I'm no network engineer, but there seems to be a big delay when the route is passed over to Telia, support maybe able to reroute the traffic to another connection node.

I feel I've bugged support enough in the last few days :blush:

I'll see what it's like tonight and give them a call tomorrow if nothing has changed :)

There is no evidence of BT doing any work last night, no connections were lost.

This was prior to that Rik. Yesterday evening we all lost connection to Blizzard's servers which are on the Telia network in France. They came back an hour or two later but since then latency has gone up two to three time the norm (currently 366ms for me).

I've been on the case - sent the info to Blizzard and they are opening a ticket with Telia (at least I hope so, the info has been forwarded to their network team).. Simon @ Idnet has kindly opened one with Congentco, so between both sides hopefully this problem will get resolved soon  :D

I think the real question is, are we looking at another night of disconnections or extreme latency?

That surely is down to Blizzard/Telia/Cogentco, the problem is outside of IDNets system.

Perhaps someone is trying to steal your gold!  :eek4:
Hope you get it sorted. Routing can make a big difference, but you have little to no control over it. :(
I use to have a signature, then it all changed to chip and pin.

Hi all,

Any news on this one?
My latency is hovering around 330ms, it was as low as 70ms yesterday.

I understand it is out of Idnet's control, i was wondering if the other WoW players have had any luck with routing or are still suffering?

Cheers
Ian

Hi and welcome to the forum. :welc: :karma: IDNet can only do a limited amount as WoW has only the Telia link, so if things slow down there, there's no alternative route.

Hey and thanks for the welcome.

I'll hang on and just see how this pans out.  :)

Hi Ian and welcome  :welc: :karma:

If the latency is still high tonight, I'll start a thread in Blizzard's technical support forum and link it here.

Is this a good time to say we are recruiting players for Cataclysm?  :out:
