does anyone use WTFast?

This, all of this for playing Ninja. It's such a huge difference with mudras running Wtfast then not running it. It's not perfect all the time, but without running it it makes the job unplayable honestly.

Any tunneler (Pingzapper, BattlePing, WTFast, et al) will help considerably with basically everything related to lag in the game. WTFast is a wretched memory hog in my experience though and I don't like it's obsession with vaguely trying to qualify its "improvements" to me.
But also, yaknow, Basic tier is free and the wallet's tight this month.

ive actually been using this for the last few months and it has improved my connection a lot, took a few hours to play around with the settings and server/port choices but have come up with the best connection...for me anyway! i recommend to anyone with lag issues to give it a try....im in aus, fyi.


with subs at 4mil and increasing hopefully (one day) se will implement servers in aus for all oceanic players

I'm in Chicago which is relatively close to Montreal compared to many players and still, the lag without WTFast renders the game unplayable for me. So I have use it. There must be a bad hop somewhere in the great lakes area.

So what Server do you guys choose? Closest to you or closer to the actual server? I tried a many servers from WTFast and only have a reliable connection at prime time when I choose one closer to the FFXIV servers. (I'm from Europe btw).

I used chain connection.
First Server is where you're closest to (use the Ping button to determine that).
Second Server is closest to the SE servers, in this case, Canada TO1 or TO2 is sufficient.

For me as EU player Ninja is unplayable without WTFast, I would've quit this job months ago without it as my ping is around 160+ and Mudras are a living hell.
EU servers can't come early enough.

i also use chain connection
1st server i go with closest to me ie: aus
2nd server i go with closest to server ie: japan

i play on tonberry and japan is a lot closer than canada (6800km vs 14100km)

I play on the NA Center, so that makes sense. I have to keep trying out connections cause I still get 110ms :x

Ah alright. But I'm using the Free Basic Version where I can't use chain connection. But servers close to Montreal work for me. WTFast Servers from Europe do not however.
Too bad I can't test the Premium version for a day or so...
