Addict wroteHey i do not know how to post a new forum if anybody can message me about that...
But im here to ask about turning from a us server to a eu... if i have the us cd,can i just install that and buy a eu cdkey online or is it best if i buy it from pc and parts?
you can do this... but you wont see the EU update and time of restart, so try to get full EU version ..

Hey you guys ... This is related to WoW that's why i'm posting this here.
I spent 2 months searching to find the best internet connection, i picked IDM, took them 5 weeks to come. I took the 256 package just for trial, and somehow from the day i registered till now (month and a half) the highest download speed i got to is 20.9 kb/s which is fucked up. I'm worried when it comes to playing WoW since i'll be starting to play again next week (haven't played in abt about 2 years). Does IDM really suck? Should i upgrade my package? leave them ? or just get the IP fix and all my problems would be solved?
I don't download that much ... by the end of the month 200-300 mb remain from a 3gb quota ... What to do??
I asked the same question on several other topics, no clear answer has been provided. So i figured why not do it here since there's so many posts and subscribed personnel, please help i'd appreciate it, i don't want my WoW experience to suck balls. Thank you in Advance.

ok Even though we have discusses this many many times before ;) :
1-Best Internet connection for Gaming , Ogero ( Sodetel Gaming package is also Viable )
2-Software to use to enhance Latency : Leatrix Latency Fix
3- WoW consumption is VERY minimal compared to others , like if you play 4 hours i THINK it's something like 60mb . Not Sure
4- ISPs right now are all having their problems ( don't ask me why cause it's all rumours atm )
5-If you play on US you're latency should be 200-300 , if you play on EU 120 to 220 .
Hope Everything's Cleared Out and Good Luck :)

Hello,
In case you don't already know, we're working on building a Wiki for LebGeeks. Our goal is to provide an answer to recurrent questions like these.
We're looking for people interested in writing articles about playing WoW in Lebanon. What connection to get, ISP comparison, Latency issues, best servers, where to get the patches/extensions from, ... stuff like that.
If you're interested, send me a private message :^D

euro on my connection 120-220 ?? That's great, if not... is my connection good enough for leveling in my first month ?
Devaz
ok i was afraid you'd ask that which is why i didn't mention it , I just think that if you don't mind the "Delay" then you should be fine , + if you did it in the previous Vanilla/expansions you shouldn't have any trouble , There isn't Anything "Really" Different So you should Be fine :)
and yes i have Ogero , With the Leatrix Latency Fix , My latency to WoW servers is 120-220 depending on where i am . ( Again I am talking About EU Here ) And btw Leatrix is an all out RegFix so it doesn t just help WoW it helps with Online gaming in General , i have 120 Ms to HoN and LoL Servers .
It's Been said that Leatrix Might Reduce your Download speed but i can tell you that hasn't Happened to me , Don't Even know anyone who complained about it
Josenad
Thank you Devaz you've been of such great help. i'll get the leatrix fix then, and hope for the best... if it didn't do it, i'll probaby upgrade my IDM account to 512kb ... but i have a good feelin abt it :) thanks again you guys... at last all my questions have been answered.
Addict
hello but what does latency do
Devaz
Latency is the Time It takes a message/object/item/Whatever To get From Point A to Point B , The less the latency is the better since it will take less time for the Command to arrive , and the higher latency the More Lag or Delay you'll have .
And Josenad ,Anytime :) Glad i could Help

Addict wrotehello but what does latency do
to make it simple , if you press one to cast greater heal for example , if latency is somehow 150-300ms , the cast bar will appear fast and you can play without problems , if not the latency is 600ms+ you will notice a delay between the moments when you press the button to cast greater heal and when the cast bar appears and the spell is casted , the more the latency is higher the bigger the delay , and of course when latency reaches a really high number 1.2k+ for example , the delay becomes really annoying and the game is simply unplayable , you might also encouter spikes here where everything freezes for a matter of second and then works again wich usually leads to a disconnect and a huge wipe in icecrown citadel when lich king is on 13% :D of course im VISP user so i've seen all this :)
Addict
Ok thanks for both(vengeance666)and(Devaz).

Oh God.... latency.... I read what you guys wrote, and I'm going to try Leatrix hopefully today after work. I play on US servers and my latency is 500-600 at its best. I don't really have problems until 40+ people all blowing their cool-downs in one place. That's when I disconnect.
I have Cyberia ADSL 512, I wanted to switch to Ogero, but staying half a month without internet just to wait for a switch over is not an option .... I'll die from boredom :P
Seeing that there are quite a few here who play on US servers, I say we should all gather up and start our own guild hehe. I know there are a few Lebanese/Arabs that play on Dalaran Realm, but that's about it.

I tried Leatrix, and OMG!!!!! My latency went down to 300-400, I love it. At first WoW took a little longer to load, but later on worked perfectly. Thanks.
Just a note on the Leatrix, it is a VB script, so running the "install.vb" script might generate an error. To solve that you need to run "regsvr32 VBScript" or if you were running vista, run command prompt as Administrator, and try it. Cheers.

EU
Just checked the installation files and they are of the US version so they're useless!
Guess now I need the installation files of the 4 EU dvds or game folder

I learned a trick in some cafe when i was in Dubai, you can switch to US or EU servers just by a single trick, the game will still be the same only the server list will change, as far as i remember you just change the wtf.log to US from EU and the servers will be US, and vice versa
edit: here is the trick
You need to change your realmlist (if you have a EU verson of wow)
If you have a EU verson of wow and want to play on US servers go to your world of warcraft folder.
World of Warcraft\Data\enUS
In the enUS folder find realmlist.wtf and open it with notepad or wordpad. Then change all of it to
set realmlist us.logon.worldofwarcraft.com
set patchlist us.version.worldofwarcraft.com
set realmlistbn ""
set portal us

I used to do this when i had EU client but US account. But i think you need to keep the patchlist as the original otherwise it wont work. At some point in time, the US will end up with different patch number than EU. However, doing this is a very bad idea especially when they release a new patch, you might need to wait one day since US patch days are Tuesdays where EU are Wednesdays. If you try to force the update by changing the folder name from enUS to enEU, you might end up damaging the whole game folder.
At some point in time, I had my WoW folder totally damaged, so what i did was I went searching for an internet cafe that had WoW installed, and took the whole US game folder patched and ready for 50,000LL.
