I tested the following IPs and all point to Austin:

1- IP address from in game (GW2) /ip command in chat window: 206.127.159.250
location Austin Texas USA.

all IP addresses shown below from Windows Task Manager->Performance->Resource Monitor ->Network Tab->Select Gw2.exe in Processes with network Activity -> TCP Connections List of all GW2.exe Remote Addresses

2- 206.127.159.250 ( same as from in game command )

3- 64.25.47.27 , location Austin Texas USA

4- 206.127.159.107 , location Austin Texas USA

I use http://www.iplocation.net/index.php to locate IP.

I understand the game connect to multiple servers ( log in server , chat server, Game it self…etc).

but non of all active connections is in Germany.

Last year, I have tested locations and found a German IP address but not any more!!!!!

Can some test and verify the location of the servers.

Hello Xlll – I can understand the confusion here. Just to clear things up, all European servers are physically located in Frankfurt. It’s just that the IP’s are registered in the U.S. by the company that has ownership of those registered IP’s.
