WTFast

I've never heard of this before. Are any of you using it?

WTFast - Instantly lower your ping 60-90% - http://wtfast.com/

I wouldnt run it its an exe who knows what it actually does. Plus it looks like a subscription thing aint worth it.

This is probably similar http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info13581-LeatrixLatencyFix.html

It appears they're proxying your wow data stream to get around bad/long routing issues, from what I can tell by a quick search and read of their FAQ. If the TCPAckFrequency fix doesn't work for you, I'd be very wary of any service that claims to make the interwebs faster by monkeying with your routes or anything else without telling you exactly what they're doing.

Maybe I'm being paranoid but it IS the internet, after all...

Might be similar to lowerping.com and smoothping.com (which are godsend) but the sites to confusing to be there for long enough to check it out.

http://wtfast.com/ is an awesome service - it is always fast/stable for me. Using WTFast I can consistently lower my ping down to about 25ms to 50ms whenever I play. (normally around 150ms to 300ms) It makes a huge difference to help me get interrupts off, stop guys from LOSing, etc. I notice it also really helps to boost my DPS in raids since rotations are alot cleaner.

You give a great testimonial, how much did they pay you to come here? Sorry I will live with my crappy DSL for now

LoL, makes me trust it even less coming from one post count. I'll stick with Time Warner, thanks.

The theory works, and so does smoothping dropped my latency about 20-50 ms overall. Which is good... sicne I was at 130-150.
Id like to see what happens with those with like 300-400 ms.

WTFast does actually work, and it does work great. They haven't paid me anything, but I asked WTFast to sponsor me because I use it religiously and tell my friends about it (basically I get a free subscription).

I would suggest the TCPAck changes and/or moving to a server in a closer location long before I suggest a "service". Especially when it's marketed so aggressively.
