    sounds like a routing issue between you and SE---need to get your ISP involved. May not be your ISP, but could be one of the 15-20 some odd hops in between you and SE's servers. Ultimately, they will need to run traces to find the problem. Ideally, you would want to hit the ones that are stalling when you are connecting, but you wiill need to run something like netstat or TCPView in the background to catch the IP's.

    Some known servers they can try to use are the DNS servers and such that get referenced by name in some of the game files:

    square-enix.com (202.67.53.202)
    SE DNS servers (dns1.square-enix.com to dns4.square-enix.com): 202.67.53.31, 202.67.53.95, 202.67.53.32, 202.67.53.96)

    ffxi00.pol.com (124.150.154.122)
    c000.pol.com (202.67.54.52)

    Note there is a big mess cutting across the US atm with severe thunderstorms, knocking down lots of power lines and such---not just the lines/transformers themselves....the poles are actually getting knocked down and uprooted in some areas. Communications that pass through these regions may very well be temporarily disrupted until repairs or workarounds can be implemented. One such region is Virginia/West Virginia, which has been known to cause some issues in the past for the Southeast.
