What's your LATENCY? LEATRIX Latency FIx

Hey, my latency is in the 300's most of the time and last night (not the first time) it was around 1200 which means every time a boss fight started i was booted. I am researching today to find that leatrix latency fix will help? But the people using this all had problems with a latency of 200 or so and now they have 60. Is this accurate? Does anyone have experience with this leatrix latency fix? It is a script which performs registry change commands which an unexperienced networker as my self should not be doing unless by a thrid party program such as this which keeps me from screwing up!

Thanks,

Re: What's your LATENCY? LEATRIX Latency FIx

I don't know much that could help...but I too suffer from horrible lat due to a sat connection (1500-1700+ms is norm...usually get booted around 4k) so now I am curious if this would be any use to me as well?

It claims to have 100% successrate and 66% reduction in latency!

Re: What's your LATENCY? LEATRIX Latency FIx

Personally, I don't really know the Leatric stuff.

Though, the only stuff I used to tweak my internet connection is coming from

SpeedGuide.net :: The Broadband Guide

You can check the (Broadband - Download/Patchs) section of the site to find TCP Optimizer
You can also check the (Broadband - Registry Tweaks) for small fix.

This site cover Linux/Windows/Explorer/Firefox/Hardware/etc.

My latency is around 90 to 132 and the only time it goes higher than that is when my ISP crash.

Hope this help

Re: What's your LATENCY? LEATRIX Latency FIx

I do know about some registry editing you can perform to make latency issues better, but always when your editing registry, you have the risk of corruption of files and system 32 files, and its always a good idea to back it up.

As for the LEATRIX im not sure what to think about it, but reading some of it, it required a PC restart.

Quote:
Why make a script, why not just make a registry file?
Because the keys which are modified are unique to the computer you're using, so it's not possible to make a static registry file and expect it to work.

Why not make an executable? Why use Windows script?
Because Windows scripts can be run on any Windows operating system which Leatrix Latency Fix supports. The script code can be inspected by anyone to see how it works and what exactly it does. Wowinerface also has a policy of not allowing executables for obvious reasons, which I agree with.

Do I need Administrator rights to run Leatrix Latency Fix?
Yes, since it modifies keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. If you run the script from an account without Administrator rights, you will be prompted for the credentials of a user account which has them.
Which makes me think, they are using a script to edit registry in HKEY - so I assume this is what the program does. I will investigate further, and actually install it.

However, i do recommend if you use this - BACK UP YOR REG FILES

Re: What's your LATENCY? LEATRIX Latency FIx

#1 how do i back up registry files?

#2 it says you do not have to restart.. If you do not want to restart you just disable/then renable your network card.


I read several reviews where thy did just that and it worked with no restart (if restarting is a sign of a bad idea) lol cause i have no clue!

Re: What's your LATENCY? LEATRIX Latency FIx

Well, if it requests to restart, its probably best to do it.

Here is a guide on Microsoft's website on backin up registry's.
How to back up and restore the registry in Windows


edit;

Also if its disablign and enabling network card, the program edits a HKEY of the network card, allowing the edit of TCPAck and how the network card handles incoming and outgoing requests to blizzard servers.

Either way, restarting or disabling will work

Re: What's your LATENCY? LEATRIX Latency FIx

I would defiantly not be working on this if you wanna raid ulduar tonight. Wait until you have at least a day to test everything out.

and if it was me, I would just restart, its easier.
