Hi I saw you post about controller issues so I thought I would try to help look up Magic-S-stick https://www.amazon.com/MAGIC-S-Wirel...2213628&sr=8-1

They have several models on amazon I use one of these myself with a ps4 controller works great I do suggest 2 controllers though and a charging station for 1 at all times depending on your game play time so you always have one charged and ready to go.

Thank you, TaruPanda. I do already have it connected to the PC by bluetooth. The problem (that I have just resolved) was that windows would redirect the input to a virtual xbox controller. My use of the DS4 program was preventing the new FFXI environment (from the new web installer) from properly receiving the inputs.
For those who's controllers have suddenly stopped working, an uninstall/reinstall of FFXI and POL with no additional gamepad software other than the windows driver may solve your problem. If you had to use another program for the gamepad in the past, such as DS4, go ahead and remove those drivers and the program.
