So I have been away from Wow for quite some time. Just recently noted there there were posting saying the latency problem to US wow server have improved.
Low and behold, I updated my wow installation and logged into my starter account and checked out the latency. it is at 220ms+/- 50ms
That is way better then the 500ms+/+500ms, I had when I left wow like 2-3 years ago.
So I did some digging and did tracert and pathping, to some server in US. Result as follow.

So I was curious how come the hop stops at 219.93.218.177
Is that tm's new toy that is now routing our traffic?
Just some thing to talk about I guess.
Cant wait to sign up for more subscription.

edit:
So there was this lightning storm when I first tested it. So I shut down my modem/pc to prevent damage.
Anyhow now I am back up and doing some more test.
My router also have traceroute, apparently it works.

However, I am suspicious as my pathping shows that I am losing 70% packets. plus the below I cant do pingtest's packet lost...30 hops max, 56 byte packets

what is going on...
so this is whats going on! I was using firefox with noscript blocking the testing server, therefore the packet lost testing couldnt proceed.
I do have a A line.
