Me too - it’s specifically high world ping - home is totally normal. I asked in zone and no one responded and few people are posting about it here though. When they’ve mentioned the DDOS attempts recently they always say it’s impacting specific ISPs. Perhaps if it’s happening again it’s some of the smaller ones? I use CenturyLink for what that’s worth.
Restarted modem/router ; tried to use a hotspot , went to my brother house (isp and vpn different) , delete and change folder wtf, addons and all of that, called my internet company(they didnt see anyproblem).
I have done everything at this point so im totally sure that something happened in that blizzard battlenet update (was like 2 weeks ago).
I think it may have been just wow. I don’t recall. Worth a shot. You can get broadband cables of varying sizes at Best Buy. Of course, with the coronavirus situation, you may have to order it but it’ll take 3 weeks to get to you.
I also have CenturyLink and am dealing with this issue. I haven’t been able to do things in instance zones for a week now. My world latency is over 5000 in Ny’Alotha. Islands it’s been over 1000. Battlegrounds vary. It’s irritating. If it’s DDOS attempts on CenturyLink causing it, that’s just stupid… It’s a junk ISP. Go after one of the bigger ones that will at least do something about it. CL doesn’t care about their customers. (Deleted other reply since I was posting on wrong character. Not playing Classic right now and no clue if the problem is happening there.)
I did restart my router and took a break for a bit - then when I came back it was fine for a couple of hours. Then suddenly in the middle of a horrific vision attempt it was back and worse than ever. I’m hard wired into my modem on this computer by my partner is watching streamed over Wifi and I’m able to access other services like YouTube just fine without lag. A speed test shows exactly the same ping/down/up as post reset when things were working fine.
Edit: One other thing - it’s not EXACTLY just WoW - it’s other Blizzard Games like Hearthstone as well when this is happening. When I connect to Hearthstone, for example, certain features will be disabled like the Shop or Play and then slowly come online. Completely abnormal behavior.
Same i restarted my router and nothing is helping logged into wow 9000 world im on tichondrius server US horde and I HAVE an excellent internet latency always at 70ms 70mshome lowlow and now its so bad for the past few days and i cant do anything something is happening i also use century link
