Maybe in 25man raiding or AV's. As I said, IF something goes above 30ish kb/s then yes.

I base this off years of comparing and experience. I played the beta on 384k and 4mb, lines out of the same exchange same ISP and there was 0 difference. (variation of maybe 1-2ms)

There are two reasons, one could be you have a different ISP/account type at home, might be something wrong with your line at your flat. OR, maybe WoW spiked over 30kb/s and you saw a minor difference. As monk mentioned, wow sometimes takes a lot of bandwith, add voice chat and maybe you get a spike.

So, I am 100% certian after talking to other people with 384 lines and myself playing on 384 as well as 4mb lines that there is no difference. I get 180ms in WoW on standard mweb uncapped. What do you get?

This is the ping to EU on a 384k line.
