  1. While in World of Warcraft, hover your mouse cursor over the interrogation symbol on the right lower corner of your screen.
  2. The Game Menu should appear above the user interface icons area. You can see your world latency among all the other data.
  3. Just hover the interrogation icon again to update your Ping and try to notice slowdowns or within the blizzard servers.
