It is over 4 pages long so far - let's try to get a blue response and/or some acknowledgment of the issue.

Elevators always disconnect you now? Better QA Bliz, please!

They are lucky we are addicted to this game. Their QA and Customer Service has really been annoying with this patch

I just started up my 5-box crew tonight and did some testing as I was experiencing disconnects when following on two of my machines.

I used PerformanceFu, an Ace addon for Fubar that you can get at www.wowace.com

My test connection is a 10mbit download/10mbit upload fiber connection.

When my two machines kept getting disconnected, PerformanceFu showed this:

Bandwidth in: ~3000 B/s
Bandwidth out: ~10 B/s

At the same time I checked my other three machines that were not disconnecting, and PerformanceFu showed this:

Bandwidth in: ~1000 B/s
Bandwidth out: ~500 B/s

After a few minutes of consistently being at low outbound on the 2 machines and continuous disconnects on those machines, the outbound finally raised to around 500 B/s and continually rised. Coincidentally, at the SAME time it raised, the disconnects stopped happening.

Conclusion: Not enough outbound bandwidth on those two machines to handle the following.

What does this mean? Well, I couldn't quite figure out why those two machines had such a low outbound. As I am typing this they are all stable at above 1k B/s....It seems to have to be either my hardware (which I am doubtful of) or it is on their end.

All five boxes are connected to the same switch, then to the same router, and then to the same fiber connection.

Any ideas? Should I post my findings on the bug forums? Blizzard has STILL not responded to any of the /follow posts. Quite frustrating if you ask me...

There was a blue response to a similar thread. They are aware of the issue and "are working on it". I can verify that turning on the vsync option does seem to work, at least for me. Here's the thread I'm talking about.
