How to Resolve World of Warcraft Connection Problems

You'll need two pieces of software: http-tunnel and FreeCap

  1. Install both programs
  2. Start up HTTP-Tunnel. After the initial dialog screens, it'll auto-detect your configuration. You're done with HTTP-Tunnel now.
  3. Run FreeCap and navigate to find WoW.exe (or the executable that is used to start the game) in your World of Warcraft main folder and click-drag it into the FreeCap window. Configure the settings as shown below and press OK.

  4. Finally, to play the game, just double click WoW (or whatever the game executable is) inside FreeCap and start playing.
  5. Optional- For the Blizzard downloader just add the downloader file (should be named like this: WoW-1.6.0.4500-to-1.6.1-enUS-downloader.exe) to FreeCap and you should be able to download them without any problems.
