Thank you for reaching out to report this issue. It sounds like something is causing intermittent drops in connection–albeit not a total loss–allowing you to stay in-game when it happens. Since the troubleshooting attempted thus far has had no impact, let’s go ahead and have you run a ‘WinMTR’ network test while the problem occurs in-game. This will help us investigate potential network-related issues anywhere between your computer and the game server. Here are the instructions:
Enter the game IP into the “host” field. The IP address for our games are listed on the WinMTR instructions page
Start the test and play the game for at least 15 minutes. Ensure the problem happens while the WinMTR tool is running.
After recording the problem data, click “export text” and save the WinMTR file in an easy to find location.
Once you have that made, open the file. You’ll need to copy and paste the contents of the Text document into the post, and put four Tilde (~) marks above the WinMTR. It’ll look like this:

so I have a bunch of threat attempts that coincide with my desyncs on port 3724. is it enough to supress the last one that happened, or must I make a suppression rule for any source going to that port?
I’ve put in a few hours today/yesterday and haven’t had any issues since. I tried making a rule to suppress all incoming ip’s at wow’s port, and mass suppressed each individual ip that I saw on the list.
