--- Comment #3 from John john123@openmailbox.org --- This bug is also valid for me as of 12 Sep 2014, and is still ongoing.
OS: Linux Mint 17 64-bit KDE Wine: 1.6.2 (and then tried 1.7.26, bug still present) Gfx: GTX 750 Ti on nvidia-331
The WoW client will not connect to Blizzard servers when launched from the Battle.Net application, but will speedily connect when launched independently of the Battle.Net application.
To troubleshoot this, I've:
1- tried running 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Wow through Battle.Net, as well as openGL arguments - to no avail. 2- tried running under Win 7, Win Vista, Win XP options within Wine config - to no avail. 2- tried running traceroutes to the relevant Blizzard servers (a list can be found here: https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/performing-a-traceroute), and there are no issues connecting to different server clusters. 3- power cycled home network, flushed DNS, and disable LM firewall, and then tried launching WoW through Battle.Net - to no avail. 4- contacted Blizzard support and removed the 'Starter Edition' from my Battle.Net account as some forums report that having the starter edition alongside a fully paid one may cause issues in some setups.
Curiously, this Bug appeared right after the latest Battle.Net update - which I cannot find release notes for - so I would be interested to know if anybody thinks that update could be triggering this Bug?
