Australian Server Problems(1)Category: Technical SupportApril-8-2014 2:58 AM PDT (9 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
I urge any Australian players to post in this thread in order to hopefully bring issues to visibility.

I've already posted a pathping and tracert with no response, so I shall do so again. My issue is as follows:

When I connect to a decent server I usually sit at a stable 30ms. I can leave the game, instantly hit resume and land a !@#$ty server upon which one of two things happens.

a) I sit at loadscreen for an extended period of time and I'm required to alt+f4 the game
b) I connect to 0 ms with no intractability with ANYTHING. I've left it for 10+ minutes before and it has remained in the same state.

If I try to reconnect to a new server immediately after this, sometimes I score a good server and other times it continues. Note that once I'm connected to a decent server my ping is completely stable amongst all of this.

Why do we have to authenticate through the American servers? This seems like really dodgy routing Blizz. Once again us Australians are thrown under the bus.

There's packet loss all over the pathping, that could very well be the cause of the latency. I would recommend contacting your internet provider and passing the pathping on to them so they can check what's going on.

Please, remember that when a thread is this old, even if the issue is similar, it's always better to open a new thread for your case so we can look into it.
