You might want to post more info. Where you live, what server(s) do you play on etc etc.

Do you share the connection with anyone? Do you have any other applications running besides WoW that might leech a lot of bandwitdh? What speed does the internet connection to your place have (or should have)?

The realm you play sits in the Chicago datacenter. Is that a convenient distance from you or are you located totally elsehwere in the US?

I can't find any list for that but the German servers are obviously hosted at the same locations as the English / French / Spanish realms I would guess. Geographically the German ones might be hosted mainly in their German data centers in Düsseldorf, Frankfurt and Hamburg BUT that's just a guess of course. Could also be Paris or Stockholm.
