Anyone have a list of server IP addresses for BNET?

I used to play Diablo and was able to optimize the ip addresses to find the best one to connect on. Anyone have a list of the available ones these days?
 
I think Battle.net does that for you. You don't need techniques to connect to the fastest server.

Are you having any connection or lag problems on Battle.net ?
 
Ya see...

Battle net will never be as smart as someone with a brain. There are times when server split is running rampant. If you and your friend can choose the ip address to connect to, you are guaranteed to see them in the channel, enjoy games with them, and just enjoy your experience much easier.

I have dealt with server splits since the inception of Diablo 1.

So does anyone have a list? I hate scouring the net for it but it looks like that is my destiny.
 
Btw...

Here is one I found as an IP... 64.14.113.139

The rest I have are all domain names which will assign IP addresses on the fly. Those don't help me, I need numbers.
 
The IP numbers are the same ones as those domain names resolve to

so use those

yes I know that a host name can resolve to more than one IP address

these numbers can change at any time

if Diablo 1 uses the gateway system, it gives you a selector when you connect... use that an you'll be fine most of the time
 
Understood but...

There is still a finite list of ip addresses that are used. They might add to or subtract from periodically but it wont be any more than they did on Diablo and Starcraft. =)
 
Domain names do not assign IP addresses on the fly

they point to them

so resolve the domain name and you will get an IP address

although I reiterate that it isn't necessary to do any of this and its best to just let the game handle it


They have changed the way b.net works -- there are now "gateways" which are separate from each other, so there aren't very many splits [since the servers are probably in the same room]

also, all the old server optimizing programs don't work anymore because Blizzard changed the place where the server list is stored, and the format that it is stored it

    How often does the Trending Content box refresh?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Also, in the last template there was a seperation between sticky threads and regular threads in the forum
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Not sure. It's probably part of a cron job.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Hey Ghan, whatever cron job its part of its not running its been the same for days. If it does not work can we remove it?
  • Ghan Ghan:

  • The Helper The Helper:
    LOL! A tweak job!
  • The Helper The Helper:
    this is the fix I get from that yeah this is hard to control. disabling bots is pretty much necessary as ai and other bots would push really old threads to the top. reduce weight of view count. disable guest view tracking if you really want to push active threads to the top. a bit of tinkering for a few days with the weights and other settings should get you a decent trending widget box.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I changed the settings a bit.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Narrowed it to 7 days for the half-life and set views to 0 weight.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I dont think Trending would work for this forum it would be better to just have the last 5 posts from anywhere
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Probably will have to give it some time to update.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I'm guessing it is not retroactive.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Next on the punch list: Update the server to Ubuntu 24.04.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Mad Lads is new I see it displays original post date
  • The Helper The Helper:
    as long as it changes it is good - it is good now it updated and its new stuff
  • The Helper The Helper:
    One thing I have noticed and I dont know if it is by design but like 1 out of 3 times I come to the site the Anubis screen just hangs open, if I refresh it will go away but sometimes it hangs
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I've seen that as well.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Wow - the change in the stats are major. I kind of knew it was all bots but wow, to see the effect. Why the social media sites cant do something like this I have no idea.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Probably inflates their numbers so they look better to advertisers.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Yeah google does not filter those bots. I remember when Apex was doing Google ads I saw the same IPs in there as I was seeing here - google is totally tracking all those bots as traffic and most google traffic, at least ours, was all bots
  • The Helper The Helper:
    oh wow, i bet i can post x links now and do the webp pics now giggity

    ahh anubis blocks anyone that has javascript turned off
