Consistent 90002 and 90006 errors: possible DDoS?

Hmm... it came back a little later than expected today. Oh well... expect to put up with it for another 3 1/2 to 4 hours. I don't have to be logged in to see it.

Well I tried to do YorHA. No lag on entry. Once again hit Hobbes and my god its 20-40sec lag spikes! This is the second night in a row... and yet SE has made NO STATEMENTS on the issue despite all the reddit comments and this thread on the forums.

Lag +15 on Aether and no lag on Crystal.

Crystal lagging bad again tonight. Seemed more stable today until now but even just trying to load friends lists or FC or linkshells is taking a good 5-10 seconds if not more.

I have Spectrum and I am on Aether/Faerie and have noticed lag spikes while gathering. My pickaxe will stutter or hang up for 1-3 seconds every so often. Nothing has been too horrible, but it is enough to make me take notice.

I only lagged once, on Primal, and it was for like 10 seconds. I was playing on PS4, but otherwise, everything was perfectly fine. Wheras all my PC friends told me they were lagging.

I've been having issues for the past two days, I'm currently on Primal right now and whenever I log in the game is stable for a good 20 minutes until it starts lagging to hell then kicks me.

At first I was worrying that this was on my end but from looking on here, and on the subreddit it's obvious this is an issue for a lot of people. Hoping that SE can at least acknowledge the problem and make a statement, even though their hands are tied with this type of situation.

I got booted from an unsync, solo instance of The Sirensong Sea. I don't remember what the error code was, but it was definitely 9000x.

The odd thing, however, was that there was no build-up to the disconnect. Usually when I get booted like that, there is some kind of lag or whatever building up to it. Sometimes, in severe cases, enemies and party members will just stop moving entirely while all I can do is move around without casting abilities.

Not this time, though. It went right from smooth gameplay to the error screen. I think it's a server issue.

Just got booted on Crystal. First time the lag has been bad for me.

It's not a server issue. There's a faulty network node in the pipeline causing issues for a subset of players. I'm in WA, and have been unaffected by the issues. My friends in MO, FLand IL haven't had lag issues either. If it was the servers, everyone would be having problems.

It could still be genuinely anything. I know AT&T is still having some serious outtages in some areas, and after calling up my ISP, they too were having node issues due to either high volume traffic or just general need of maintenance, at least that's the generic response I got.

When I made this thread, I wasn't exactly sure of the cause other than it was causing me to have constant disconnections, and was just trying to make sure it wasn't just me and my router.
