Need help with connections to World of Warcraft (WoW)?

Posted on September 28, 2011 by admin| 3 Comments

I’ve played World of Warcraft for the past few years and since the dramatic increase to 8 mil people i’ve had horrid trouble with lag and such due to my connect (dial up). We’re trying and trying but no phone company says we’re close enough to get DSL or anything faster. A few years ago when there were only maybe a million or two million people it was fine and dial up wasn’t even a bad connection, but now even a private server’s too full for me to play on dial up. Anyway, when i tried playing on regular WoW it wont even allow me to login to my account because there’s so many people, is there any way i can fix that? And is there any internet providers that you can suggest us with that can probably provide internet further out than most?

Having internet/router trouble?

Posted on September 18, 2011 by admin| 1 Comment

I just bought a new laptop and had to get a router of course, but my problem is that my desktop was working fine with by dsl/cable setup, but it seems that when I got the laptop and bought the router and had it configured for my desktop and laptop, now sometimes I cannot get an internet connection. I try to troubleshoot by making sure my connections are on, and I get a message on my laptop stating a local connection is unplugged. I don’t get that, I don’t see anything unplugged where my router is and my desktop. I even disconnected my router and plugged it up again. Could it be that my downstairs landlords who do not have cable or dsl, but an ancient dial-up computer, and the wife has a laptop, with a router I am assuming, could be interfering with my wireless connection??? I am so frustrated because I love my new laptop and this is getting ridiculous!!

What is my IP address?

Posted on July 7, 2010 by admin| 7 Comments

Im having trouble figuring out what my IP address is. I am on a dialup connection in Costa Rica.

When i do an ipconfig, it says my ip address is 196.40.91.80
When i check on sites which tell you your IP, some say 196.40.43.218, some say 196.40.43.74 and some say 196.40.43.78 – why is this, and which is correct?

Furthermore, if i am on a dial up connection, will my ip address be the same each time i log on, or will i get assigned a different one each time by my ISP?
