I managed 35.. only about 30 were "playable" using DSL and Cable bonded together. The main problem is the upload speed.

So........you have over 30 accounts?
:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
Even if you used trials, it meant going through the hassle 30 times to set them up. Holy god.
sweet jesus...
Haha could you imagine stinky queing all 40 into an AV. Make 40 mages and just AE all the way to Drek/Van.
Damn... even just using ice lance to single target stuff, that's 12k damage to a single target instantly, assuming 0 crits! Wowhead lists drek and vanndar at 370k hp. Assuming ~1500 for a non-crit frostbolt, all 40 mages would only have to cast 6 times each (again, assuming 0 crits) to kill him...Quote:

absolutely sick man :)
How do you bond DSL to Cable? I've had bonded DSL lines before but that had to be done at the isp level. Unless your not talking about true bonding?
I don't think you can do it in windows but you can for sure in linux. So if you use a linux box as a router connected to multiple internet connections you can split the load between them.
These were trials. It took a while to set them up :)
what kind of hw were you running it on?? how was the cpu/mem usage?
(
crap dude, hahaha, that's awesome!
Half of them look lost and I don't blame them ;)
lol WTF! epic.
yet you still don't play with us :(
I ran 8 each on 4 separate dual core machines and 8 on my quad core machine.Quote:

FPS were.... horrible.
Let's just say that when I got them all to the Zep... (between the hard lock reboots which took out 8 at a time) ... I loaded into UC with about .1 seconds before I loaded back.
BOTTER!
Seriously, any funny looks?
Going to hogger solo at lvl 1, wootzor!
For the rest, you had great fun I imagine? :P
out of curiosity, what's your upload limit? I've never bothered to figure out how much wow uses per client, anyone know offhand?
Oh, and very cool!
Running 5 clients on one machine for 10 minutes (actively killing mobs) my average upload was only 3KB/s with spikes as high as 24KB/sQuote:

hmmm so 25 characters is probably the max on the average good cable connection. Guess you would need one of those new fiber connections for a economical way to go over 25. Course Xzin could just get a T3 to his house....Quote:
spikes as high as 24KB/s
a BV2 would work and cost a lot less. a T3 would be some disgusting overkill. Now Id love to have a T3 to my place for the cost of cable but then I dont live in japan :)Quote:

Very nice :) with that many concentrated areas you can start protests in major cities, wreaking havoc with lag and spam!
And what did you do to bypass the trial creation limitations? :wink:
-S
Most likely he had at least 1 that was not a trial.Quote:

1mbit plus upstream and you shouldn't be running into too much drama.
iirc Xzing had 10 accounts? you could easily activate 1 account, then use scroll of resurection chained onto the other 9, then you can send up to 5 trial invites from each of those... that's 50 accounts ;)Quote:

Remember 1 mBYTE connection is not the same as 1 mbit. 8mbit = 1mBYTE.
It is possible that had I used more computers that the cpu/video card loading times were also part of the issue..... but even when things were stable with all 30+, follow lag was pretty bad.
I experimented with Verizon dsl and Comcast cable. Have a multi-wan input router as well, but that didn't work out great. Anyway, I was able to hook both up to one computer, 2 nic's. If the cable disconnected, dsl would take over, until the cable came back on. I absolutely hated dsl though, so I got rid of it. Cable gives me 20Mbit now, so I'm happy.
When will you attend start leveling your 40 characters and solo ragnaros? And how will you deal with the other bosses in MC?Quote:
