World of Warcraft®

**SOLUTION**
Hi there!

For those of you that still have this problem, I'd like to share my solution to this!
It's rather simple and quick! Since you most likely got this Thompson from your ISP, you might have an old router lyin 'round somewhere!

If you do.. This is what you do!

Thompson -> random router -> computer.. And problem is solved! Easy as that!


3 step guide:

1. Install your Thompson tg78xvn / tg78xvn as usual
2. Connect your router (random one) to the Thompson
3. Connect your computer to the random router!


I know all of you won't be able to do this, since everyone doesn't have a router lyin' around!
But for the ones that do, this is a quick and easy way to fix it :>

Hope this helps some of you out :)

This is confirmed that it is working.
Was talking with Konah on skype and he told me he found a solution for this.
So i tried it and it seems to work for me aswell.

If you are trying to out make sure to leave us some feedback!

Sincerly Nithya.

I have hooked up my netgear router to my thomson and i can confirm i have had no problems with my loading screen, my husbands has been fine and so has our sons so a huge thanks for suggesting this!

Immy :)

I thought that the Thompson tg789vn could not be used in conjuction/series with other routers. Do you connect the Thompson tg789vn via a cable to the "random router" or via wifi??

Oh I would love this to work!!

I disabled the wifi on my netgear and used an ethernet cable to link the 2 .... 3 pcs in my house are attached by ethernet into the netgear whilst 1 is on wifi hence having to disable 1 as i don't know enough to change the ip on one of the wifi routers to have them both enabled so had a clash issue with wifi but once that as done everything works smoothly. No lag or loading problems as we get into a dungeon, new zone or a bg.

i did try to connect my router (bilkin) to the Thompson via ethernet cable but it did not work for me..im using the bilkin wireless tho i have not change many settings in the bilkin router..any ideas how can i make it work, and was wondering if a program like lowerping would stop the screen freeze...plz help :)

Contacted my internet provider Telia today, and they promised me to send me a new Thompson, because my old one was a TG784, and couldn't be updated with new firmware. Once they've sent me the new router they'll contact me and they also allowed me to test their new firmware, which is in a testing phase. So hopefully on a way to a solution!

Thank you! :)

Me & Konah might make a setup Video and post it here and on Youtube.
For the people that isn't really tech! :)

I can confirm that it works with a router added to the Telia Thompson gateway/router... BUT, not without some issues.

1. Theoretically the added router should be configured to "Bridge mode" to avoid two NAT-routers in series. The network works flawlessly. However, with this setup you will get the same WoW freezes as before. :-(

2. If you force the added router to be in "Distribute IP-adresses mode" (resulting in two NATs routers in series) it messes up some network features like UPnP... BUT WoW works!!!

Testing a VPN tunnel now wil update if it works. I have the Thompson twg870u With the same problems cant get into Arena and DS. Somtimes i have no problem and somtimes i cant do !@#$ @ all. So hope this works for now.

What should I use for "Distribute IP-adresses mode"?
Been using this router solution for 2 days, got stuck once!

Hello Forum,

We didn't have time to make a setup video might do it this week.

If you can't get it to work i suggest a temporary solution.

It is a tunnel vision program.
It is only temporary till Me & Konah are making the setup video so you all can enjoy World of warcraft again. :)

Any vpn-tunnel works (I have a vpn tunnel from vpntunnel.se and I have never got stuck once when I had that on). But smoothping is really cheap if you want to use that!

Adding another router to the Thomson will not work. You will still get the loading screen issue.
I have tried this.

It does work. See my comment above.

To get it working:
1. Switch off the wireless of the Thompson.
2. Set the additional router to distribute ip-adresses (i.e. share one ip-adress). If your added router runs in bridged mode, you will get the same issues as without the added router.

No I am afraid it doesn't work. I switched of my wireless Thomson and I had my router (D-Link DIR-655) in DHCP and it didn't work. If it didn't, it didn't!

You have done something wrong or it simply does not work with the router you are using.
Do you have another router lying around somewher? Try to use it or borrow a router from a friend of yours.

Router to router does NOT work for me either. Guess I have to stick with vpn-tunnel until a patch for the router is released.

Also have tried router to router, without it working. However im not great with this stuff. I linked my belkin router to my thompson box via ethernet cable. My computer found the belkin via wireless and i connected to it, but still had issues. Can someone maybe spread any light on what i might be doing wrong? Also what is this bridging connections stuff and how do i do it :) ?

Cant get it to work with connecting another router to the thomson and since i got telia i can change **** in it anyways so a freind bought smoothping and now we are like 5 people sharing same acc so it works awesome now
