Re: Throttling

You may think its funny but it really only happens when we both are playing... and it's rather unplayable.

Why would our connection not be able to handle 2 wow connections at 7 but be able to at 10?

Doesn't make any sense

You're right, it doesn't make sense.............unless it's packet loss induced by that time period.

WoW isn't latency-sensitive or bandwidth-intensive.

It doesn't make any sense for an ISP to throttle WoW users, they're like the perfect customers. The uprising you'd get from that is probably bigger than the bandwidth cap policies lol.
