EU Realm IP Addresses

[thisgeek]

I am busy modifying [thread=64649]Bernie's IPCop script[/thread] to allow a third connection for unshaped, with routing specific to the WoW realms.

The idea is that you have 3 simultaneous PPPoE connections:

1x intl
1x local
1x unshaped for WoW only.

I thought it would be nice to include realms that other people play on, in case some bright spark wants to attempt to do this using some other methods (Route sentry maybe).

If anybody is interested, I will gladly share the script. I'm basing it on rt version 0.0.05 (see the last post in the above linked thread).

If you would like to help by contributing the IP address of the realm you play on, please post here.

To find out the IP address, connect to your realm, and log in to your character. You need to be actually in the game (and not on the char select screen).

Then, alt+tab out of WoW, and run cmd.exe. In the command prompt, type "netstat -bn", and you will be presented with a list of connections and the associated executable.

Look for a single entry like this:

TCP    172.16.16.10:3578      80.239.179.31:3724     ESTABLISHED     516
[WoW.exe]

For example, the above line shows my machine (172.16.16.10) connected to 80.238.179.31 - which happens to be Twilight's Hammer.

The list:

• Scarshield Legion - 80.239.181.95
• Twilight's Hammer - 80.239.179.31

Just checked Scarshield Legion - IP seems to be 80.239.181.76

This shouldn't be a real issue provided you are routing based on the netblock and not the entire IP.

I'm looking into this exact thing at the moment, however I am wondering whether it will not be better to use advanced routing and iptables to route the traffic based on port rather than IP.

Send me your msn/gtalk details. I wanna discuss this

If based on port, easiest is to reroute based on port 3724 although torrents ect could also use this port which is no cool.

Based on netblock is not a bad idea, but then their website and forums and blizzard downloader will also go over your unshaped account.

So my believe is, a combination of both is the best.

Anyways, re the netblocks, they have multiple ones, although only some of of them are noted on this page:
http://www.wowwiki.com/EU_English_realms_info

So according to that page:
* Frankfurt: 80.239.232.x, 80.239.233.x
* Frankfurt 2: 80.239.148.x, 80.239.149.x
* Paris: 80.239.178.x, 80.239.179.x
* Paris 2: 80.239.181.x
* Paris 3: 80.239.184.x, 80.239.185.x
* Hamburg: 213.248.122.x, 213.248.123.x

However I know karazhan for example is on: 62.67.45.19

Sooo.
