Wow world latency high




Extremely high World Latency while my home connession is good




Blacksunday-auchindoun1


As the title states, my internet connection is good and stable (i performed multiple tests while playing), but i literally can’t play the game since 11.0.5 because my Latency (World) keeps going up to the thousands. The game simply stops working, spells are not cast and any interaction with the world does not happen. My Latency (home) stays at 50ish, as it’s always been for me. This doesn’t happen all the time, but I can’t play for more than 4-5 minutes without it happening. When it happens, I usually also can’t even log back in for some time, all while monitoring my connection and seeing no changes and no problems outside of WoW. I can’t seem to get any help so i’m writing here to see if someone else is having similar issues and hopefully get some solution. I have tried disabling all the addons (they are kept up to date anyways) but nothing changes.

UPDATE: after not playing for 3 days ( I was on vacation) I came back to find WoW running just fine, all the aforementioned issues seem gone. however, I’m leaving the post here, because A LOT of people are still experiencing the same probl

High Latency only on Wow



#0 - Dec. 30, 2009, 3:23 a.m.



The issue im experiencing is high latency (2k ms - over 7k ms) only on Wow but not on anything else. When i ping various servers i get around 100ms, but whenever i ping the world of warcraft site i get the infamous request timed out.

So I'm wondering why this is and what i need to post to get it resolved. Ive tried everything on the main thread about latency which includes:
-deleting cache
-turning off unused internet connections
-checking realmlist
-running repair.exe
-ran scans with multiple virus scanners
-"TcpAckFrequency" registry hack
-turning virus scanner off and windows firewall

I also did a Traceroute and I don't see anything wrong in there:

Angelsword,

That pathping is actually normal. Those 100% packet losses you're seeing when it hits the ATT network are expected.

Thorgarth,

The traceroute you posted looks normal. In the future, if you have an issue you would like addressed, it's better to start your own thread rather than jump into someone else's and start bumping theirs.

For everyone here with lag-related issues, please ensure that you have fully followed each and every one of the steps below. Any one of these steps has the potential to fix your problem:
