anyone facing problem like getting disconnected? Actually i got 3 ppl including me using 1 streamyx line for wow but few days ago it isnt a prob only until this few days, giving us like 4000-5000 ping. But if just 1 ppl playing it is still tolerable..

YES.. the line is still bad for WoW and any other p2p/streaming applications. This is because of a "temporary" throttling. I hope it is temporary. This is normal since the earthquake did destroy the international line and bandwidth need to be watch until they fix the line 100%. If by the end of the month they haven't remove the throttling (assuming line is fix), then we can petition.

Its always been there and its not temporaly. Why you suffer more now is because there is not enough bandwidth to go around to WoWers and P2Pers And hence the throttling increases and therefore more lag.

Its very very easy equation. If i have more bandwidth means theres less throttling means less lag. Easy.

Blame the 24/7 P2P users, and also blame TmNet aswell for not buying additional bandwidth or even take it to the next level like sgers did.

Sgers Maxonline from starhub is a direct international line and hence they have thier on Tier1 Backbone to rely on.

What Tm has? Shared backbone with hk taiwan routed thru japan/taiwan to US.

i always having lag spike, very bad.....

i can only use 219.95.xx(2 digits).xxx IP, if 219.95.xxx(3 digits).xxx then very bad, almost cant play at all.

but then again, even with 219.95.xx(2 digits).xxx am still exp'ed lag spike from time to time especially in town.

fren of mine stay same area with me (sri petaling), he can get 219.95.94.xxx which is a good connection but i can never that IP, i dun understand.

i heard some rumours quite some times ago that someone hacked into tmnet server and screwed up the IP configuration and they dunno how to reconfigure it again, amazing.

and now + EQ in taiwan, everything is gg..... doh.gif

Lol ok. The ip config is based on the dhcp server in every datacenter. Each location is assign a certain set of ips range. If you are in that location you will be assign to that ip.

Oh yea, this is to reduce ip conflict which is major havoc on a isp.
