every isp offers fixed ip for about 22$ extra a month ( or fixed proxy the same thing ) , instead of lagging like hell all day ( my case ) while you have 1.2k ms , fixed ip users are playing smoothly on 150ms ! :D i know it's a ripoff of 22$ , but that's lebanon , either you choose to lag or play like a decent human !
Josenad
but the 22 $ isn't available in pre-paid cards ... I took pre-paid service :S I think i should talk to them

yes iam 512 and it doesnt matter what speed you take, latency is a different thing. and about fixed IP i had no idea what that was untill today >.< i should ask about it! does fixed ip fix the internetspeed after 11 as well? including latency?
vengeance666
with who you got your 512k plan ? and how much latency are you having during daytime without the fixed ip jadz?
jadz
it varies between 300 to 700.
vengeance666
and wich isp ?

256k from IDM with fixed IP ... is enough for leveling up in WOW?? and some pvp like wsg, ab etc ...
Cause i'm goin to start playin again, but i'm goin to start from level 1 .... So is it enough for my first month on EU server ?
I'd appreciate your Advice ....

I've Been Playing WoTLK before the Cataclysm get Released on Ogero Blink, and the Latency was fine and no Lag. so after Cataclysm I stopped playing WoW.

dude this doesn't answer my question :(

256kbps is more than enough for leveling, 5 man dungeons and even 10 man raids in most cases.
It's 25 man raids and world pvp that require the most bandwidth and this is where you might encounter some latency and/or frequent disconnections if you have a slow connection.
Of course the above only applies if the ISP keeps the download/upload speeds stable even during peak times. Meaning if their download speed doesn’t frequently drop as low as 120kbps for example. But even then you might still manage to play the game for normal leveling and 5 man dungeons.
As others have mentioned, latency is in no way related to connection speed. You can have an 8mbps download speed with 1mbps upload and still get the worst latency ever.
It all depends on the ISP (the way they prioritize their traffic: gaming vs browsing or p2p) and of course the route you go through to reach the EU realm you're playing on (fiber vs satellite), optimized paths, etc...

Thank you DG :) I appreciate it (Y) as soon as i hit 70 ... i'll bi hitting Ogero, should've done it when i had the chance 3 months ago, but i never thought i was goin back to WOW ... WOW rocks :D and thanks that's a relief.
And 1 more thing, I think there's a latency fix that world of warcraft offers, and it's for free, does it make any diffrence? anyone tried it? give it a try if you never heard of it and update me please :)
vengeance666
if you mean the leatrix latency fix ? yes it makes a little difference , and make sure you edit also the TCPNODELAY one , it gives results too
Josenad
Cool... Thanks :)

paper ? first who's name is written on the paper :P who's the isp ? and how much are you paying per month ?
second nothing is unlimited you have been FUP'ed :\ you downloaded too much so technically it's not "unlimited", cut down the download a bit and you should be back to full speed again in a couple of days
Josenad
true ... it says unlimited ... I have an ''unlimited'' connection at my summer house ... And it's probably pirated, illegal, and if you reached 300 mb download a day, your connection will keep on working, just enough for msn. And like vengeance said, after the 300 mb, it needs 2 days rest to get back to full speed.
A word to the wise ... play online as usual, download the needed, and lay off the porn. Peace .
