Q: Where will the servers be physically located?
A: The game servers will be hosted within an Australian data centre, ensuring Australian and New Zealand players receive the best possible latency.

Q: Will I still be able to play with my friends who are on U.S. servers?
A: Yes! Because the new Australian World of Warcraft game servers will continue to communicate with the existing North American hardware, players will still be able to play with friends on U.S game servers, just as they can today. They’ll still be able to use their Battle.net friends list to easily group up and chat, regardless of where they are playing.

Try do a tracerout between these two: 103.4.115.248(D3 AUS) and 12.129.209.68(WoW Bloodlust).

Never played with tunneling since I got Maxis HOME 10mbps.

Before migration: 190-250
After migration: 150-180

It's not constant, sometimes it goes to the usual 209ish probably because it's BG and connected to LA anyways.

But if it's in open world, 150ms biggrin.gif

Exactly same as you, I am using maxis home fibre 10MBps,

Before migration: 190-230 ms
After migration: 150-170 ms

Server migration improved for me slightly.  I am at Taman Desa area, where are you at khelben?

I'm at Medan Damansara smile.gif Hopefully Maxis wont suddenly change the routing.

You'll be pitted against north americans too and when that happens, you'll be connected to North American realms and your ping will be like before inside arenas, so, to be honest not much has changed.

I wonder if anyone on maxis can post their traceroute? It's mind boggling for me how on the 7th hop the latency is 40ish but the next hop it hike up to 250ish even though the ip address of the 7th and the 8th are probably the same area.

Ah, you can d/l http://old.r1ch.net/stuff/ftrace/  to traceroute if you can't do it the usual way (command prompt tracert).

I'll try when I get home. Yeah it doesn't show with command prompt.
