Beta WoW Boleh Ping Service (Free Trials)

This service works on the same principles as Gamepath and Lowerping.

Please refer to here for help on finding a good IP range for WoW.

We are looking for testers for this (no payment required).

Please post your interest and support of such a service.

We are now using a local datacentre which should give more consistent pings to the US servers regardless of where your WoW server is located.

ruben your avatar is srsly eye catching....makes me look at it for a loooonnnnggg time b4 even reading XD

Reuben, majority of us are now located on the Oceanic Servers which are mostly located in LA, not Dallas.

There are still some players who are still playing on the US servers but not so much anymore and they eventually ended up moving to the Oceanic Servers.

Yes I am aware of that

I made a mistake in choosing the first server as it had the lowest pings to malaysia (230 ms) without realizing pings within US itself could add so much to the latency!

However would anyone be interested in testing this first?

Well, I'm already on a private SSH, but I'll help test it out for feedback if you want.

Thanks will get details out soon. Will pm u with info sometime today. What server u on?

Frostmourne.

Alright here are some results from server's i ran based on the 118.101.* range, will test it out with 118.100 and 124.13.* laters

Gorgonnash - 459 - 694ms (peaked) an avg of 590ms
Wildhammer 355 - 733ms (peaked) an avg of 540ms
Thaurissan - 298 - 432ms (peaked) an avg of 380ms
Kargath - 406 - 689ms (peaked) an avg of 600ms

Reuben, these test are runned from the 202.* server, it was kinda laggy on the 69.* but will do it later as it's raining over here.

Yeah that Streamyx IP range kinda sucks...U can't get a 60.x range?

Yeah i can't get the 60.* range at my area.

Getting 220-290ms, typical good SSH tunnel ping. However I'm getting a -lot- of random dropouts where pinging shows 3/4 packet loss and WoW completely disconnects.

So far no dropouts or packet losses on my side.

Hey Reuben,

Would like to trial this, looking for your response. Thanks

Will give you feedback on the Dallas one. I'm on Whisperwind. I for one am glad you made a mistake choosing the server .. Cheers

Tested out on the 118.100.* tonight and i must say it's fairly stable on Thaurissan as i was able to get an avg of 400-490ms (i get nearly 900-1.4k and sometimes skyshoot it's way to 4kms without bolehping)

Gorgonnash - 480 - 680 (peaked) an avg of 600+ms

Again, I must say that the best IP i get to play WoW with is with 118.101.* IP range (without bolehping) and 118.100.* is playable only with bolehping and i am yet to test it out with 124.13.*

Hi,

Just tried the Dallas server for Whisperwind (US). Not sure if I did anything wrong, but I am getting a lag of 2500ms. Direct route only 1500ms. On another service, I am getting only about 300ms stable.

I am on the 118.100.* range. Attached trace to the Dallas server. Seems ok though. Not sure what I could be doing wrong. Was using ProxyCap to connect. Will try SOcksCap and see. I stopped using Sockcap previously coz it was giving me huge lags in BG and Raids. Proxycap seem to solve that for me. WIll try somemore and feedback.

Regards

did u remember to set the tunnel in putty? connections ssh tunnel D1080

Yeah I did. Sockscap is better. Hovering around 600, but shooting up to 1000 occasionally. Not sure why though.

Last night Tm's routing was a bit messed hopefully tonight is better. Going to look into it.

Ping to TM DNS was 350 ms! rofl

Seems much more stable today, sub-300's. The Dallas server gives 500-600 (as expected). Only one random dc the entire time.

Quick bump

Drop me a pm for details

We have updated our settings further to see if we can address some issues. It appears to be working but need more ppl to confirm this. Please pm me for updated settings

Thanks to the people who have tested it and given feedback Remember this is a beta service so some hiccups are to be expected while we further tweak things!

I hvnt test this w my streamyx connection. Tried to avoid using lappy to play WoW and my desktop's network card is kong atm so Im just using izzi on my desktop. So, overall it's decent I would say. Ping range isnt much different in number but the spikes does drop a lot. However, I got dced off WoW within the 1st 5mins :s

Edit: Psst. Relog again and hey, ping does drop. 350ms odd on wireless (izzi), mind you, is awesome

So I guess this is probably the first positive comment for Izzi. It sorta gives me a little bit of hope.....

Been trying it for a bit Reubs.. so far when login to Thaurissan,

i'm getting 200 to 250/260 ms latency, sometimes up to 300.. but much better than the usual 450 to 600 i get without using this. then of course it starts to spike up. 4 digit. and i end up playing without it. this happens within the first half hour.

Oh hell no - sorry for making that sound positive.

What I was tryin to say was, this - as in this ping service is reliable. But not izzi. Theyll take you to hell and back.

I live in Sydney Australia, i'd like to test your ping service... What do I need to do?

Cheers
Peter

i'm a tunnel user. My pings are between 150- 300ms with the tunnels. Very stable no DC's. If u want me to test yours let me know what to do.

........that was frm 2k8 brahs
