Stuck at Logging into server.... For the third time this year

This is the third time this year I have this issue.

I was playing the game and then suddenly I lag out and try to reconnect. when trying to reconnect i get stuck on “logging into game server.”

Troubleshooting steps I have tried each time this has occured:
updating addons and curseforge
restarting modem
restarting pc
repairing wow
Reinstalling wow
renaming wtf and interface folders
Deleting cache.

Nothing works as it is not a problem on my end. What always works is blizzard finally fixing their issues, but support is a solid 0/10 experience. Not sure how to stop this from happening again but I would like it to stop as its getting very frustrating.

Update: i am now able to enter the game again
What i did to fix it: nothing at all…again. but hey at least i can play again.

My ISP is just the local “city name” internet and im not sure where theyre getting it from. it states: “____ City Cable has worked with several businesses in the area to help fulfill their needs for internet and television”

So honestly who knows. but I would wager its epb as theyre the ones who dug up our yard a few years back to install the fiber optics

all I know is ive got 170+ mbs download for speed

I did a scan and repair and I was able to log in.

Most of what you tried wasn’t related to your connection, so I’m not sure how you came to that conclusion. It was likely a bad route. This is incredibly common when you’re using an internet reseller, like you mentioned. They get whatever is leftover after the main provider has enough bandwidth for their primary customers — that’s how they offer lower rates. It’s the same with prepaid carriers, like Metro vs T-Mobile.
