Internode WoW Gateway Full Release v2 01/2010

[Yazour]

After sleeping on the problem it occurs to me my issue may be caused by haveing wow installed in the original directory 'C:\Program Files (x86)' rather than the now recommended directory 'Public'. Has anyone got freecap or widecap working on a WoW.exe installed in 'Program Files'?

[Cougr]

I've ran into a slight problem.

I used the settings from the OP and double-checked they where correct, I added WoW as an application. But when I try to launch it, it either does nothing or I get an error from Putty and WoW. Has this problem been solved? Can someone link me to the page if so thanks.

Has anyone successfully use internode's gateway to play WOW?

Error came up with the default settings via freecap.

Proxifier does do the trick but I'm experience constant disconnect with it.

Will anyone from internode take a look at the proxy settings?

[Wyld]

I can't say much, as all I can add is that it's all working for me and quite well. And with multiple people using the same gateway at the same time.

Using the settings from the first page ?

I'm not even able to connect to the server. Can you please help?

I opened putty, load the "wowgw" profile, but it keeps telling me connection time out when i connect to it.

I checked the settings, and they looked pretty good to me.

Server: wowgw@wowgw1.internode.on.net Port:2222

tried a couple times yesterday and today. Still the same thing.

Is it because the server is temporarily unavailable or why?

BTW: i'm with internode Home-NakedExtreme-240

I brought a copy of Proxycap and enjoy generally (95% of the time) very smooth connection and with 220ms ping. Tonight however every 10 mins I appear to have complete packet loss for 10-20seconds. Anyone else with this issue now?

[Kreivi]

First of all I'd like to thank all the support from OP and everyone involved. This has certainly been a great effort to improve everyone's game experience.

That said, I've had some hard time getting my proxies and logins and whatnot to work (no real knowledge of how internet works).

Currently I have been able to drop my ping from 800ms+ to 450ms+. This has been a huge victory for me, even though the latency tends to go back to 800's from time to time.

So, I am using Proxifier and Putty when running WoW. From what I have gathered, Putty is working fine and is logged in (here's me wondering what it actually is/does).

But with Proxifier I've had some issues.
First of all, if I add all these ports 1119,3724,4000,6112-6114 in Proxification rules ports range, I can't open WoW, it will crash before starting up.
So I removed all those ports from the range, was able to start and log in, but there was no change in latency.
Now, I went with trial and error, and removed some of the ports from the range. First I was able to start WoW, but could not log in. When I had only 1119 removed, I was able to log in with improved latency.

Can anyone please explain to me what I've done here, since it kills me not to know if there is a step I skipped or room for improvement. The proxifier traffic ranges from 0.40kb/s to 1.00kb/s with peaks of 2.00kb/s randomly.

Thanks for reading. :p

Gateway issues...

Thanks for reading. :p

From what your describing with the ports behaviour I think you may have either one of the wrong options up selected for proxification, or you dont have the proxy started up or something. Below is an image of the setup I use - hopefully it can give you some pointers.

I use the SSH gateway (not the putty one - but it shouldnt matter). On the image you'll see the contents of the batch file I use to create the gateway connection, and windows with the various proxy rules and settings. I run WoW through the launcher - runnign it via the link to WoW.exe from freecap wont work.

One other thing - to ensure the gateway is actually up and runnign and you have the actual proxy set up correctly, there is a test proxy function somewhere in the proxifier menus. ALso be sure to start proxifer beofre the gateway - that seems to fix stability issues for some people.

edit the batch file to suit your locations
hasn't failed me once, couple hundred downloads too

Thanks both Linxus and Marshy for the help.

I made the settings as in the picture above, but was unable to log in with the port 1119 in range. It's only if I remove that I can play.
Loading Proxifier before Putty didn't seem to change much, but I noticed Proxifier sometimes has issues connecting.

Here's two occasions I logged in and checked the results and logged off. The second time my ping was lowered from 900ms to about 500ms.

[11:04] Error : the proxy server 127.0.0.1:1080 cannot establish connection to 213.248.127.130:1119

So I don't know what is causing the connection issues. Is there something I could do with my router settings perhaps?

And Marshy the settings on the package don't let me get past the login. Probably because of the dreaded 1119 included in the port range (still don't understand why it creates the problem). The batch file I will be using though!

If you are still having problems, give this package a test, see if it works:

http://rapidshare.com/files/443723326/wowgw.zip

You will need to launch WoW separately, after the putty RUN file is launched. RUNSSH is also there if you want to test out SSH.

Settings should load up with proxifier, but it might be an idea to load them anyway, the first time you use proxifier. In proxifier menus - select File/Load Settings and load "current" settings.

Make sure the wow.exe WoW file is found in the proxification rules. In proxifier menus - select Options/Proxification rules and select "WoW - current", then press Edit button. Select wow.exe and then press Add button. If it does not go to your default WoW directory, you will need to change it and select wow.exe in your default WoW directory.

Port 1119 is used for the authentication connection and also sometimes for game data. What you need to do is not proxy the authentication connection. In FreeCap all you have to do is:



where 12.129.206.130 is the authentication servers ip address

[Kreivi]

Submariner, tried with the package. I checked the settings to match the rules. But SSH didn't seem to make a difference, the 1119 included in the range was still not letting me log in unfortunately!

And whuz, for some reason trying to run WoW with FreeCap just ends up crashing. At some point I was getting a short load time, then error messages via WoW client, but now it's an instant crash. I know how to fiddle with my router settings, is it possible to input that stuff there?

Thanks both!

After sleeping on the problem it occurs to me my issue may be caused by haveing wow installed in the original directory 'C:\Program Files (x86)' rather than the now recommended directory 'Public'. Has anyone got freecap or widecap working on a WoW.exe installed in 'Program Files'?

I have the exact same error as you,

Running windows 7 64bit

I have WoW installed in /D drive and I have no idea how to get this working.
