Re: [KS] Latency/Throttling for games? Looking for insight.
said by Beats  :It is the speculation of Blizzard tech support that my ISP could be throttling game packets. I have seen a thread in the DSLR Comcast forum, and another in the DSLR Embarq forum, concerning lag, packet loss, and WoW. The poster in the Comcast forum submitted a trace route which shows no issues in the Comcast transit network, and definite issues in the AT&T Worldnet Services transit network. Blizzard hosts WoW on the AT&T network.
Based on those threads, it is my speculation that Blizzard has a habit of pointing the finger away from themselves, and to their subscribers ISPs, despite that multiple users on multiple ISPs show trouble in the AT&T transit network. Blizzard is just ducking their responsibility.
