Possibly you are failing to connect to the WoW login server, but thats just a guess.

To go into more detail it seems that earlier today backup routers were activated as a result of a failure within our ISP. While this process took place successfully and without player impact a subsequent failure of hardware resulted in poor realm performance and high latency, and slowness or failure to authenticate. We have been working with multiple vendors to repair and return service to normal as quickly as possible and so far have been able to return service to our primary routers which is helping the situation considerably.

We appreciate your patience while we looked into this matter, and apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Hooray?
