A wild guess for me is that there is some kind of routing problem with Canadian ISPs. Given that it starts out fine then goes to 10000ms for me instantly that seems like packets are being routed through some weird route or there's some kind of bottleneck happening. Regardless, seeing as it is randomly affecting some people and not others I think it's safe to say that it's not a Warmane issue but an ISP issue.
There was this software I was going to try using called WTFast that apparently acts like RIP on a router and traces the best routing path to the server. Will report back if it works.

Reporting back, using WTFast and letting it do its thing has resulted in me not being DC'd and my latency is once again fine for about 15 mins so far. If I get effed up again I'll let you know but right now it has solved my issue. Downside is that it has a 2 day trial.. hopefully it'll be fixed by then.

Ontario Tek Savvy dsl, same issue. also having the same problems on kronos vanilla.
though i've noticed over the last few hours i'm getting more lag spikes and then sped up animations instead of always dc'ing, dc'ing only half the time lol.Edited: January 21, 2018

from Ontario Canada, Have tried many things, issue only started about 8-9 hours ago. Was fine before that. Same as you guys, disconnects every 2-3 minutes, sometimes instantly.

I think you're right, something is definitely wrong along the route Canadian packets are taking to the Warmane servers. I'm no computer wiz, but if someone knows the IP address of the warmane servers run a tracert
Where xxx is the warmane IP address. It will save the results to that .txt file in your C drive. Paste the results back if you can.Code:traceert xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx > c:\tracert.txt

This was posted on /r/wowservers and it appears to have worked for me. Although the lag is still pretty bad, I'm not getting DC'd
Run Cmd.exe and execute the following one by one.
Code:IPConfig /release IPConfig /flushDNS IPConfig /renew

I am from Canada, having the same issue. I first thought it was my addons causing it because I installed Xperl and power aura. But after redownloading a clean version and it still failed, I think its not addon problem.
