    If DNF was released tomorrow, I'd have to wait another 3 years for the installer to be patched, so I could play it.

    LOL! Seriously though if it is ever released and its buggy the Devs can just as well commit suicide because gamers will never forgive them, or buy anything they work on.

    For some reason latency during the day has been sh!t... Tried using all different accounts, and it's sh!t. During the evenings I use the axxess 626 with gamemax, and my latency is around 260 to 280ms.

    But for some reason with gamemax I cannot go into wintergrasp, I just lag out and disconnect. Sometimes happens when I raid 25 man content as well...

    Same story here, no matter which ISP I use. I once managed to make Ulduar+Gamemax work by running Vent on 2nd machine through shaped normal connection. Hasnt worked again though.

    We sell a super duper triple redundant unshaped service which comes with three logins, one for each of the three unshaped services available (MTNbusiness (was Verizon), SAIX and IS fibre+). It is premium but at least allows you to try all the networks to get the lowest latency to WOW servers (the network performance does vary on these networks but I've always got one of the three to work well). Bandwidth used on all three services is combined to measure total usage at month end, service starts from R69 for 500MB prepaid (and 14c per MB postpaid).
    We also sell and recommend IS fibre+ (for low latency after hours and good access 24x7) at R65/GB prepaid, or R1099 for an uncapped fibre+ service.

    Perhaps it would be wise to mention proxy services like Gamemax and LowerPing in the article?
