    Default World of Warcraft: Axxess 626 reviewed

    Axxess's 626 account offers unshaped bandwidth at an unbeatable price, but how does it perform in WoW?

    Yeah, I would actually like to have internet all day long. Although I only log on after 6 usually, I also use it in the mornings, from 7:00 onwards. So, I don't think we'll be gatting that anytime soon.

    Interesting read Tinman. The Idea of only having internet during those hours are appealing, but what if i had a day off(yeah right) their pay as you go option looks more promising to me. Although i don't play wow, thinking of trying Eve online. Guess i will be having the same lag issues.

    only feasible option i found to saix/verizon unshaped was semi unshaped from www.nexus.co.za.

    there was always the option of gamemax, but that got you suspended at times with blizzrd.

    at end we don't have a nice with rice for wow and mostly related mmos.

    the best preformer out of the lot was hellgate korean servers with saix shaped running around 200ms solid, but then again they were underpopulated and over crowded with foreign speakers

    currently i play with AoC and DDo on semi unshaped its ok, but not perfect.

    I use this for the evening (3 gigs) and a 1 gig unshaped from Axxess for during the day.. I will say that the latency on the 626 floats around 500 to 600ms. Used to get around 280 to 300ms with gamemax, but their service (gamemax) went pear shaped for 25 man raids and winter grasp. (Constant lag and disconnects.) So I canceled it.

    The 1 gig unshaped account is terrible. Up until about a week ago, for 3 months or so my latency was perma above 700ms during the day, and dropped to about 650ms during the evening. But by then I switched over to the 626 account come 6pm.

    Started playing WoW yesterday and i'm getting around 650ms - 850ms with Webafrica shaped. Tomorrow i'm going to buy 1GB unshaped and see how the latency is then.

    With the Lord of the Rings online and World of Kung Fu I was getting around 400ms with my shaped account.
