Q u o t e:

Hey, ladies and gents!

In continued effort to isolate and identify all possible sources of late night latency, our Technicians have politely requested trace routes from affected Oceanic players.

To run a trace route, please follow the instructions provided within the following article:


Please only provide your trace routes which represent times of experienced latency.



This information is extremely valuable at this point in time, so please—if you are able—post your personal tracert herein when/if you begin to notice discernible interruption. Based upon previous reports, such peaks usually hit between the hours of 2:00am and 8:00am PDT (GMT -7 hours).

Thank you so much. :)

Hope you don't mind! :)


Not at all! This is actually very useful, as we've suspicions that an ISP may actually be playing a small part in the continued latency experienced by many Oceanic players. It's just an inkling, though, so our Realm Techs are trying to gather evidence (via trace routes) to determine how best to proceed with their ideas at this point. :)

This thread'll be open for a while, Emmanuel. Definitely feel free to post a tracert from a different location. The more information we have, the better.
