This Instructable will explain step by step on how to connect to a WoW private server.

***Make sure you do not update to Cataclysm if you want to play on Private servers. If you still want to play them make sure you make a copy of your 3.3.5 client. Then update your old one.***

You will have to wait a little longer for Cataclysm Private servers. Sorry!

1. Go to you web browser. Mine is Safari but you can use whatever you have.
