In certain cases, Pathfinder may not be able to pick a good route. In this case, we provide you the ability to manually select a server which will provide a good connection.

Often, picking a WTFast server close to you will also get good results. All you need to do is select your server, then click Play!. Your game will launch connected to the server you chose and you are ready to game!

WTFast gives you the ability to go further. In Manage Settings... above, you can enable a setting which will allow you to chain two WTFast servers for an even better WTFast route. For more direction as to how to do this, please go here.

Here, you can see the WTFast connection latency as the green graph, and the corresponding Internet connection in red.

In this case the WTFast latency is lower than the Internet, showing connection improvement.

Also, below the Ping Graph, there is the Lost Packets graph. In the example above, there are no lost packets for both the WTFast and the Internet connection. If there were, there would be small bars located at the time the packet loss occurred.

The other section of the Statistics screen is the Connection Statistics, shown below.
