The queues on Kazzak can be huge, and with WoD it would be a dissaster, but there is a way to beat them if you cannot get home in time to log in.
The requirements are:
A Smartphone - either Andriod, Windows Phone 8 or Apple (though technically that should be called a 'Dumbphone').
3G or wifi connection (although 2g will still work, it will be slower)
A Computer running Windows, MacOS or Linux - I guess thats everyone covered.
Teamviewer for you mobile device
Teamviewer for your computer

When you download the computer version, set it up and take a note of your ID and your PERSONAL password - not the standard password.
With Teamviewer set up on your computer, start your Teamviewer App on your Mobile Phone.
Insert your Computer ID - this will be remembered, so you only need to insert it once.
Insert your PERSONAL PASSWORD - you will have to insert this each time you use the app.

You will now get to see your computer desktop on your phone.
Click on your World of warcraft link using the mobile phone - please note, this should be a DIRECT link /shortcut to World of Warcraft - NOT the launcher.
World of Warcraft will now start up on your computer (you SHOULD have 'remember me' ticked in WoW so you do not have to enter your e-mail address).
Wait 10 seconds or so and type in your password on your mobile phone - you may have a black screen, but dont worry about this, its just your phone struggling to show the login screen, you can still use the app.
Wait 5 seconds and press enter.
On your PC, WOW will now start up and you have entered the queue.
Get you ass back home and wait for the queue to end.
Go Kill shizz.

ALTERNATIVE METHOD

If you are at work (or someone elses' house) you can also install TeamViewer on your work computer (or a friend/family member's computer) and start your WoW from there - it doesnt need to be activated from a mobile.
No more excuses for those getting home late from work now :D

Regards Maxi

I've suggested this several times in the past, but all I got in return from ppl was that it's not possible. Imho it's worth a shot.

If you are using your phone, then it's much easier to use the new beta launcher. That way you can save your password and authenticator so you only need to press the big blue "play" button!

Way ahead of you toothie. I usually text my kids to log me in :)

I'm with Harder on this. I've invested far too much into my fauna on Kazzak to see them stranded on another, lower activity, server. The queues are a real pain, but I'd rather take that and have the possiblity to pug in the off season and have access to a stuffed AH.

bump!
+ i want to remind those who have problems wtf the fps in 25m cuz the computer can't handle it... fix it before WoD or there won't be a raiding spot for you. No holding back during raids due to that shit.

Well you should test this in WoD tbh...
Blizzard made several modifications to reduce the client cpu power required.

For me... Switching from Recount to Skada solved my issue...

There are also two seperate sets of graphics settings now...
One to be used inside raids and one to be used for the rest...
This should make optimizing stuff easier.
