I am logging on from the US and have persistent connection issues.
First, every time (or almost every time) that I login for the first time each day, I am disconnected after waiting at the loading screen for my selected WoW character. I login to the server quickly. I select my character, and press "Enter World". Often, I am disconnected after the loading bar fills on the loading screen. Sometimes, I will see the world start to load, but am abruptly disconnected. Usually, I can login again and then I am able to enter the world with my character.
Second, especially during the peak hours of activity on the server, I am disconnected even when I am trying to switch characters. Often, I am unable to enter the world with any character and give up. Then I just wait to play another time.
Third, I am almost certain I am lagging. The Ping Bar will show that I have a ping of 90-250ms. However, I can see a noticeable delay between my commands and the actions of my character. There will also be "choppy" movements and erratic controls. It seems that a true ping of 90-250ms should not cause this type of disruption
These problems have so far only been mildly inconvenient. However, I could see them causing big problems if I were in a dungeon or needed to meet a group of friends at a certain time. Are there any suggestions for correcting these issues? Are these known issues? Does it have anything to do with my location?
Thanks for the help!
