Seacom cable and WoW

[Kaine]

Simple. SSH not only also inherently apply the leatrix fix, it also compresses data causing it to be transfered faster over long distances which in turn also lowers your latency.

trust me, the lower ur latency, the WAY more awesome raiding is. trying raiding sub 80ms raiding. its like sex online

Saturday morning, no Wow atm. I've been managing to play in the evenings during this 'Seacom' week with no problems. Wonder why no connection this morning. Even tried a torrent, works.
Only Wow isn't working.
Afrihost 512k uncapped.

Confirmed, I also cant login to wow, i'm using Mweb.

Same here Strobemeister, seems even down on WebAfrica account. Anyone else have better luck?

Tried on afrihost, telkom and web africa cant log onto wow

Maybe the problem is not seacom but wow itself.

 

[Strobemeister]

Could be this.

Actually, this is the main thread for this issue. Seems most peeps are not connecting, bit of a relief it's not an SA issue.

No Wow on Mweb uncapped, Webafrica Shaped or Vodacom.

Edit: Ah, Blizz confirm, servers borked.

Just takes long to log in, but logs in fine for me on WA.

The long login issues is the login servers giving problems. Had issues with people "relogging" and couldn't get back in the game on Friday >.<

You don't get sub 100ms in SA. You probably cant get sub 200ms in SA. 80ms in Europe is nothing to rave about either.

I know, hence why I mentioned even that high number (for the EU anyway) nonetheless, it changes the whole gameplay experience. I said it in another thread somewhere, but pvp actually becomes fun cos the only toon that can *blink* is mage, and not everyone. and that split second means u wont take just that leetle bit too much damage cos the fire appeared underneath your butt.
