To everyone that have used WTFast trial and are not impressed, I can tell you that there is a huge difference between Trial version and Premium version.

Trial version really doesn't help much more than giving your connection a better route to the game-server, which can improve your ping by a tiny amount, a huge amount, or not at all... You will most likely reduce the lag spikes and maybe packet loss because of that reroute, but it won't help your connection more than that.

Me using Trial
Off-peak hours: 130-140 ms - some ping spikes[20-30 ms] - a few packet losses
Peak hours: 170-200 ms - tons of ping spikes[50-100 ms] - pretty many packet losses

Me using Premium (chained connection)
Off-peak hours: 105-115 ms - no ping spikes - no packet loss
Peak hours: 110-120 ms - 1-2 ping spikes[<10 ms] - no packet loss

I think you can see the benefits for me pretty clear...

I have used Basic for a while too, and it certainly helps during those peak hours, but the tier 1 network you use with premium is vital for my raiding... and for me personally, it's worth spending that money, even though I really don't like doing it.
