I have been getting very bad network lag since pre-patch. It seems worse in instances (dungeons or BGs). Every few minutes or so, intervals can be 2-3 minutes to 15 minutes, I’ll get a terrible network lag where my character cannot complete ANY action, but can still move around. All other characters (players or NPCs) are stuck in their last animation loop for the few seconds the lag lasts (can be 2 seconds to like 60 seconds or more). I’m still able to chat and receive answers from other players while this happens, my FPS do not drop one bit (144fps).
Anyone has been getting that problem? I did a factory reset on my router and tried on another computer, issue persists. Does not happen in other games.
I have same problem…
Sometimes after teleport or at login its all same as your problem, i can chat but cant use any skills…
I was thinking it is my network cable problem, my modem problem, replaced everything but nothing helps…seems its Server problem
That’s a loaded question. It’s important to look at the test as a whole. One hop reporting really high ping doesn’t mean much if you don’t see that high ping remaining steady on hops after it or at the final destination IP.
Post the link PingPlotter provides for sharing tests if you want someone to give an opinion on the actual data.
You described exatly the same issue I have since pre-patch. I already tried wire, wifi even with my phone. Sometimes is more, sometime less, but its always there. As you said. I can chat but everything is in loop
It’s not that as I am not in any guild and it effects all 35/37 of my characters. The only ones it doesn’t effect are my demon hunters as they aren’t entering Stormwind.
The one thing that is really odd is that when I use a VPN (tried Nord and Brave) the issue never happens… I also tried WTFast, but it almost makes the issue worst.
Could it be related to my motherboard? Like if the network speed is TOO fast it craps up my network card or something?
