Yet another connection problem

I was able to play completely normally earlier today, until I started lagging horribly. After 5 minutes of lag, I got disconnected from the server. I was able to connect a few times, but then I got disconnected again, after playing for like 30 seconds. Now I can't log in at all, I type in my username and password and hit login, it just says "Connecting" for an minute and then it says "Unable to connect" - options to select are 'Help' and 'Okay'. My realmlist is okay, I have rebooted my computer 3 times, my firewall isn't blocking the connection, so what could possibly be the problem? This is damn annoying.. Already having a bad day but hey, thats OT.

I'm not really sure, maybe someone else can advise you. Sounds like your network is having some problems, because we've been running fine.

My network seems to be working just fine, but I guess it is possible that there's a problem when we go deeper to the networking. I would really appreciate if someone would help me out. Could there be a problem with the WoW files?

Looks firewall related. Clear the ports for WoW (3724 should do), or if you use ZA/Comodo or whatever else there is add it to your trusted apps, and don't forget this useless sandbox shit this stuff mostly comes with.

Awesome. Clearing port 3724 solved the problem, thank you sir.

Hm no idea about that Windows thing, just allow WoW.exe there to communicate.^^
