ATT problem with wow

There is also a problem on atnt with wow, wows tech support forum is full of complaints about it.
At my location I have had many experiences of massive lag that comes in spikes.
It's unplayable in raids as what you see on the screen isnt whats happening in game most the time. The way blizzard has thier server/client setup to prevent rubberbanding and other glitches caused from combat over internet, the server will compute your position and the client doesnt update in sync when there is lag.

As the raids are difficult and not particulary forgiving this has made progression in the game impossible and made other games more desirable to spend my money on.

I think they stated that 1 datacenter has an issue with AT&T... I can't remember which one specifically it is, but it would affect anywhere from 2-4 battlegroups. Blizz is looking into it with AT&T..

However, this issue Rogers users are experiencing, is on all realms, on all battlegroups.

Granted the AT&T issue is probably making Rogers' users gaming experience worse for some users, but its not the main cause of the problem.

The instance servers arent local for some raids. Blackwing Descent is one that lags pretty bad, not just for me, we have had our whole 10 man raid lagging there. People from all over the US.
Most of the raid team left to play rift, theres 3 of us left now.

No issues over AT&T Wireless, when using Mobile AP for the laptop. Must only affect wired customers.
