Hey there friends,
Anyone else having the worst latency issues with WOW, since like 5AM Sydney time?
I am with Telstra cable. I did everything possible on my end, update drivers, reset router, flush DNS, the lot. But still no changes.
It goes to like 800, then spikes to over 1k. Dont know what to do. Game is unplayable.
I am just wondering if I am all alone. And if anyone else have issues, what can be done?

yesterday was great, today i jumped on and thought hmmm that doesnt feel right… tried to do one quest and thought nah not worth the risk, latency between 500-1000 for some reason…
Yeah Finrage, i heard 2 other people from Sydney having problems. What is Telstra doing im wondering. Maybe doing work on NBN and affecting our lag. And today my internet went down for like 2 minutes first time ever in like 4 years.
Having issues also. In Central Victoria using Telstra mobile broadband. Game was fine before reset yesterday (hovering around 200-300ms) but today had trouble getting latency below 500ms.

Oh Aydan, sorry to hear. I am chatting with Telstra right now. They say they have maintenance until 6AM tomorow. Maybe thats the cause. FFS. Thank you for letting me know.
I will try and somehow use hotspot on my phone and see if i can play WOW.
Bloody Telstra !!!
Sydney tpg. No lag.

hope everyone can play from then.
It scks.
Also had an issue (400+ ms) with my nbn Barefoot connection in Sydney around 4 pm today. Hotspot from my phone brought it to the usual 200.

so it seems on Remulos, classic OCE server its still 5-6ms…which is based in Sydney.
Is it possible some connection problems between AUS and the actual server which is located in either LA (SKull) or Chicago (Defias) ??
So two things.
One today Microsoft Amazon Telstra etc all suffered severe outages due to whether in Sydney.
Two I’ve reported this already but it seems like different skull rock layers flip between different data centres some are further away hence more latency. I did a layer hop via invite and latency change and pathpings and tracerts seem to confirm. Unsure if this is a me only issue though.

Ya it seems to be a Telstra issue with a hub somewhere between AUS and Skull Rock server… seems fine on Remulos and Defias. Leveled to 40 for nothing then, if it keeps going. Unplayable at the moment.
But some Telstra tech said there is maintenance till 6AM, 1SEPT. will see if anything changes.
I’ve been having the same issue but a VPN fixed it.
