does anyone use WTFast?

[Lurkios]

Will this service work with PS4 or PC only?

PC only. The only option for PS4 would be to set a static route in your router or use a gateway device with a VPN.

I play from Australia. My server is Zalera, in Canada. I live 11,000 miles from the server. Titan HM is unplayable. I have determined that my ISP is using traffic shaping because it's throttling game traffic as I think they're classifying it as P2P traffic. Calls to my ISP are met with dumb responses. In short, they refuse to do anything about it and play dumb. I now use WTFast

In MY experience:
No proxy acceleration => Titan HM meant knowing the fight, and pre-dodging while standing away from others, to avoid getting hit. Garuda Ex doable, but will die 50% of the time on Spiny bubble, despite standing inside it for >2s on own screen.
OPenVPN => No improvement over no proxy
Battleping => Minor improvement over no proxy. Cannot react-play, still need to pre-dodge. Garuda Ex spiny lag will only see me die 20% of the time
WTFast Trial/Basic => Able to dodge Titan HM WoL at will. Extreme Primals (Titan) will get hit by plumes when stacking maybe 10% of the time
WTFast Premium chaining from Australian WTFServer to Montreal on the default port => Able to react-dodge Titan XM WoL when stacking 99% of the time IF I move instantly, ANY hesitation at all means death

For me, at my distance (11,000 miles) and with my ISP doing traffic shaping, WTFast Premium has turned this game from being a 6 month long period of frustration at not being able to do any of the end-game content due to being the weakest link, into being one of the better players who is able to dodge and very often the last man standing on party wipes 'cos I dodge everything.

Your mileage may vary, but for me, chained WTFast Premium made this game playable/enjoyable again.

Oh, and on Leatrix latency fix, all that's basically doing is disabling the default system-wide TCP Nagle algorithm in the TCP Network Stack on your PC. That is rarely the issue for most anyone unless you're living in the same state as the server farm and already have exceptionally low ping times. Nagle can add anything from 0-200ms to your network latency to a game server, but Nagling can be turned off by the game's network code when the connection is established. If your latency to the game server is already at >1000ms, chances are, this is NOT your issue, and system-wide Nagle disabling can actually increase global internet congestion.

WTFast will disable Nagle on your game connection only. Your other internet connections (eg. browsing, Youtube, peer to peer) will still be Nagled (and should be).

Old topic but what is better. Using a WTFast server in Montreal or one near you?

If you have a premium sub, use a chained commection. First point from where you are (hit test ping) then the second in Canada.

Im getting this same problem now, with the last 2 days of 90k's, i started using WTFast trial version, tried not using today, now I get 2002 lobby errors. However, I can still log in if i use WTFast, did the program do something to my PC?

[Nouran]

Im still seeking an answer to that question :/

Yeah I am using it on the Premium version, and since it works with a lot of online games, I feel its worth the subscription as it makes things noticeable better with less lagspikes etc. Still, would love to see Square Enix set up a server hub in Europe. But I know that server hubs are very expensive, and all server hardware is custombuilt and such.
