Internode WoW Gateway Full Release v2 01/2010

Bit of a thread revive, but is there any possibility of this working with D3?

I saw someone mention that these services help improve ping, wondering if it's the same for the 'Node gateway

Anyone?

Not sure this would improve lag for D3. I stopped using the gateway for WoW, as I found it slightly worse than direct connect.

Current lag with WoW:
Gateway: ~225ms
Direct connection: ~205ms

Does this still work? Does it make much of a differance? I'm getting 230 ping atm

[Spectral]

Going to assume by the overwhelming responce that it no longer works.

[Wyld]

I recently retried it, and it failed for me. I tend to get around 210 and that's "good enough".

[Spectral]

Yeah i just assumed it was down now, doesn't matter though I've had no trouble with lag.

[Lady L]

This still works amazingly well for Aion. 200ms with the proxy, 550 ms without.

Anyone using proxifier thought, I'd recommend you update to version 3. Version 2 became unsupported 3 or 4 months back and as a result can be a bit on and off in actually working.

This dead? returned from 6 months of no WoW and the download link in the OP doesn't seem to work?

i'm wondering if this is like in-built now with the Internode international network or whatever. I used to get my ping from 240ish to 180 when using this and other tunneling services. but since like an year ago my ping has been 180ms without tunneling.

[Wyld]

Yes and no.

Internode have certainly implemented better data paths to the servers, but the process we use is very different. We basically get a much better connection, without jumping through the proxy hoops.

I was under the impression that Blizzard finally fixed their netcode. There is an "Optimize network for speed" (defaults on) option in system settings now which I didn't think was there before.

'Optimize network for speed' is quite different. It will increase WoW's use of your upload bandwidth when you are in dungeons or raids, espcially stuff like 25man raids where there's a lot of data. It can actually screw up your connection if you have a poor upload speed, there was a nice guide somewhere on the official forums I remember that suggested at least ADSL2 speeds to activate this setting.

does anyone have a copy of the wowgw-r2 zip? the links in the op are no longer functional.
