Thanks I have a crappy laptop that doesn't run wow so well, the first link will definitely help me.

Yes you are.It dropped my latency form around 350 to stable 210.
I just wanted to tell you something about nr.2.
Theoretically it should lower your ms (it didn't for me), because it deactivates a function in windows. This function makes your computer stack up packets before sending them. Windows does this because it enables you to send more packets, which makes your KB/s up increase.
What this means is that by disabling this function, you decrease both your latency and your KB/s up.
There's an article about this on wikipedia, but I've forgotten what to search for.
What it does is disable the Nagle Algorithm
Ye, but it does decrease ping for some people, including me :]
Quick question, I've used the Latency Fix on my laptop, and it does successfully achieve it's goal reducing my latency on retail. However, everything else (Ventrilo, SRWare Iron, Private Servers) get insanely high pings (14 ping -> 200+ in vent, 40 ping -> 500ish on a private realm). Is there anyway to prevent this issue?
