    Have you figured out how to reach the Linux desktop yet? Once you do, all you need to do is open a terminal and type

    tracert <your_wow_server_address>

      whats the difference between this and ping? i tried ping and it showed normal ms.

      I’m still figuring out how to install trace because right now it says something about my pgp signsture is corrupted, so still working on that

        I am not sure what you are doing but you should not have to install tracert/traceroute as it is in the same utility family as ping.

        Ping tells you the response time between you and your end point. Tracert outputs the response information of every hop along the way to your end point. It helps you pinpoint where the failure is along the way.

          traceroute is a separate package from iputils on Arch.

          tracepath would be included though. mtr is better than both for tracking down packet loss.

            This is just a guess, but turnoff ipv6 and try running the game that way. It might be a network issue rather than a Linux compatibility issue.
