Step 2: Get Whitelisted
In order to ensure the safety and security of Battle.net for all players, we have implemented mechanisms to detect and block specific IP addresses if too many connections are being made from a single source. This can occasionally cause problems for organized tournaments where many computers on a local network are all connected to the Internet using the same external IP address. Registering your tournament with Blizzard will allow us to add the IP addresses to the appropriate whitelist for the machines you intend to use for the duration of the tournament. If you’re running an on-site event that will have more than ten (10) people connecting at once from a limited range of IPs, send us an email with the subject Whitelist Request to tourneyinfo [nospam] blizzard.com and include detailed information about your event as well as your venue’s IP information.
