If you are having 90002/90001/Disconnects please REPLY HERE!

I finally got to do the Port Forwarding, and now I'm still getting the error 90002 and it's more frequent then ever. On the bright side, when it's fast, it's REALLY fast. But when it disconnects, it disconnects fast too. lol?

Did a TRACERT through CMD and got these results. Maybe something is wrong on my end?

Any advice or feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Dropped packets and latency are only one possibility, but what is weird, is I've tested (and have friends test) and I've seen dropped packets and latency on accounts that have ZERO issues. It's some FFXIV issue, but they seem to keep ignoring it, even though, most, if not all of us have only been experiencing since patch 5.2. *shrug*

Me too

Game has literally been unplayable for the past few days. It's getting worse and worse. It's been going on for weeks now and now I can't even stay logged on for 10 minutes.

Tossing my name into the hat here. I've got a post on this forum that SE has ignored too.

I'm curious to know if any of the stock "solutions" have actually worked for anybody. None of these should have to occur from a stock installation of the game on a brand new laptop with literally nothing else on it but Windows (and whatever OEM stuff came with it). At worst, it's an issue that needs to be fixed globally. At best, it's crappy engineering.

I too have been experiencing this issue for the past few weeks now. I am in the Elemental DC, Tonberry server. The game have an 80ms latency to the server and it just keeps rubberbanding in dungeons / raids. I play other online games, FPS games that require a stable connection, with zero lag. No lags or delays on other online games I play, so why would this be an issue on my PC / ISP?

But then again, I tried a couple of things including the IE troubleshooting and opening the ports on the router, even turned off Windows Firewall. No improvements. What did improve my situation is using NordVPN and connect to their Japan server. It still rubberbands but on a tolerable extent, making the game somewhat playable for me. Although, I still get pissed because I die occassionally on dungeons where I fail to dodge due to the rubberbanding.

SE, this isn't an issue with our PCs / ISPs. You should do something about this. If this was an issue with our ISPs, then are you telling us that our ISPs, located in different parts of the globe are having issues at the same time and only when connecting to your game servers? I don't want to give up on this game, this is a great game, and SE you ought to get fixed for all of us.

Unfortunately, I'm in the same boat and it's looking like we're without options.

It's interesting, I'm looking at a tracert right now and it's looking like I'm only getting packet loss at a single node hovering at 50-70% packet loss.

Here to. The 90002 disconnect is getting worse last weekend. In 2 hours about 5-6 times. The first weekend after the Patch only 2 times. At this Point it is unplayable. Posts in the german Forum with this issue increase to.

Not exactly the same error but it seems similar to what everyone else is going through but 2002 has left me unable to login to the game server. I make it to the title screen and hit start but never make it to character select. I am able to connect to everything and anything else but this game. Which is weird because I had no issues until this past week.
This is my tracert results. I already contacted my ISP I wanted to blame them at this point because I made no known changes to my setting and FFXIV decides to betray me like this so I think it's easy to believe SE done some crazy damage recently :(

Update: FFXIV support emailed me stating that no one else had reported this disconnect issue and no one was complaining on the forums. I told them they obviously do not know how to browse their own forums, since besides the 10+ of you that responded to my post, over 10 other posts show similar issues, and if this is only the amount of people posting, there must be a bunch more who haven't posted.

In addition to posting here, please post your own issue, to ensure they track it appropriately, and can see how many people this is affecting.

My list thus far:

Exhibit A:**https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...REPLY-HERE%21* * 10+ other users responded to my post and reported this issue as being the same as mine and also tried your 'troubleshooting tips'
Exhibit B:*https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...Error-90002%29
Exhibit C:*https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...rom-one-system
Exhibit D:*https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...rom-the-server

Exhibit K:**https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...er-maintenance...

To FFXIV support: Stop telling me it's my issue when I've PROVEN it's an FFXIV game / server issue. I'll even help you troubleshoot. I've spent countless hours doing your job. Step up.

Thanks Doom for creating this thread and shedding light into the matter. I'm disappointed with SE as well in terms of how they're handling these 90002/90001 disconnect errors. For the record, I am also experiencing these issues particularly with 204.2.229.234 server. I've also created a thread a couple of weeks ago that showed packets lost/general failures against the "204.2.229.234" server and after a few days of waiting for a reply, the thread was just gone! I didn't get any official response from support/moderator nor any courtesy message at the very least and that just made me very confused as to what's really happening until I saw your post.
