    When i was wowing, battleping was the best of all the options. Gave me a constant ping of 180ms, without it, was a constant 250/300....

    definitely worth the sub

    Dont listen to Surv0, he was a sneaky bugger that tried to use his ping to skin stuff before me.
    Oh and he was a mage, everyone knows they a bit clueless

    Rocket Boys hand eye co-ordination is off, so you could have a ping of 1million and still beat him to a skin...

    Ok. I did some testing this weekend and it seems that Battleping is the clear winner. My latency went from 700+ to below 300. Most of the time a constant 270-280.

    WTFast not so good. The best it could manage was low 500's.

    I will try a few instances this week to checked grouped latency. Hopefully I can heal again.

    Default New South Africa to EU servers

    Have you tried using "show server location" and then choosing the new South Africa to EU servers in WTFast?

    The current South Africa server is in JHB, soon we will also be adding one to CPT.

    I also use Battleping - my ping is between 230 and 300, which is better than my normal 800+...

    Ive tried this and it actually makes it worse. I go from a 300ms that i normally get on wtfast to around 500ms
    The best i actually get with your service is around 280ms but that normally doesnt last very long and it stabilizes at around 350

    Battleping seems a bit better for me at around 240ms

    What grates me about your service is the fact you have to pay extra for the features that would probably bring it on par with your competitors(wouldn't know, not paying extra for your advance features and servers)

    Thumbs down for WTFast from me
