This has been happening for weeks, and through tests it was found in my case that it was the route from NA source to the NA square servers.
Using my native North American East coast connection, I would frequently experience drops WHILE in game. Switching to an Australian VPN source,
I no longer experienced those drops, but experienced an dramatic increase in latency, as expected. 80ms to 400+ms.

Switched to a california VPN server closer to my Square datactr, seems to be routing the same as my successful australian source tests, only time will tell. Fingers crossed. :) Plus now back to 93ms latency. :)
(regarding in game 9000x disconnects).

The problem is always at the same spot....

We are getting close to prime time. I'm going to be fucked on playing again tonight because of this... and there is nothing I can do about it except cancel my sub and walk away, and even then they still have my money for an expansion I can't play, that I pre-ordered and bought a collectors edition so I could have "Early Access" - Ha...joke...

So I have been having a different issue but it also seems to be coming from the same location. I have contacted both SE and my ISP both will not work with me. I have done everything on my end to try and figure it out.

Everyday at exactly 6pm CST on the dot I am disconnected from FFXIV. before that time and after I can play the issue is like everyone else if you get DCed welcome to sitting in queue. And Im active playing when I DC at that time everyday.

I ran a ping to both the server name for Aether and ip adress and the ping to the IP continued but the server name connection timed out at that time. This leads me to believe its something with DNS. However I then ran tracert as well at this time and just like your image my image shows the same place of failure and packet loss.......

This issue I have been having only started after updating to Endwalker but this node looks to be the culprit 100%.
