WTFast is a gaming network service for Windows and compatible gaming routers. Its Gamers Private Network uses machine learning to choose a route for game traffic, with the stated aim of reducing latency, ping and packet loss. The service says it supports more than 1,500 games; players can add an unlisted title as a custom game. Its routing applies to game traffic, and server selection is listed as both. Multi Path sends game data over two connections to add redundancy against packet loss, jitter and ping spikes. It is in beta for PC, with console support to follow. Subscriptions offer unlimited gaming on either one or four concurrent devices, depending on the option; the listed plans specify four. The 3-day trial is followed by paid plans: €6.67 per year, billed €79.99 every 12 months; €9.00 per month, billed €26.99 every three months; or €13.37 per month, billed monthly. VAT may apply. WTFast was founded in 2009 and is headquartered in West Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada.
Who it is for
It may suit gamers experiencing packet loss or ping spikes linked to inefficient ISP routing or overloaded game servers. Those with near-perfect connections may see little improvement; console use is through a compatible router.
What is good
- Machine learning selects routes for game connections.
- Supports over 1,500 games and custom games.
- Multi Path adds a second connection for redundancy.
- Router support provides a route for console use.
What to know first

Verdict
WTFast focuses on routing game traffic rather than all device traffic, with custom games and router-based console support. Consider the trial and device count when choosing among its paid plans.
