Server R0 / S0 in Instances and in World - Just started happening in 2.4

To: FF14 Dev Team,

Since patch 2.4, and especially this past weekend (Friday 10/31 - Sun 11/2), there have been intermittent / continuous lag spikes. Numerous players on Masamune (and on other Servers) have been plagued with either "Sending 0" or "Receiving 0".

Massive lag spikes. And then eventual Disconnect / dropped from the Server.

I've never had this problem before this past week. I've checked w/ my ISP and they said there are no issues or blocks on their end.

Please fix this! (Using latest Nvidia Graphics Drivers as well.)

Time: 3:28 p.m. Pacific (October 31, 2014 (and continued to happen a few days before and after this))
Frequency: 80%
World name: Masamune
Character name: Kiara Silvermoon
NPC name: n/a
Monster name: n/a
Class/Level: Paladin / 50
Party or solo: Party
In-game time: 10:00 a.m. Eorzea
Area and coordinates: Multiple areas, including The Second Coil of Bahamut Turn 4 (Turn 9) Instance, in Limsa Lominsa, in South Shroud, in Mor Dhona, etc.

Steps:
1. Load up Final Fantasy XIV in Full Screen Mode. (FYI: I run an Nvidia GeForce Graphics Card (660 Ti) with latest Nvidia Drivers.)

2. Once in the game, form a party and join Duty Finder for The Second Coil of Bahamut - Turn 4 (Turn 9).

2a. Or it also happens in the overworld, running around spamming FATEs as Rogue in South Shroud, or in other Instanced Dungeons like Sastasha (HM) or First Coil of Bahamut Turn 4, etc.

3. Observe as Sending or Receiving will be stuck at "0" and lag spiking.

Result: Massive lag spikes as Sending or Receiving is stuck at "0".

I've reset my Router properly multiple times, and checked with my ISP. And there are no reported issues on their end for my neighborhood.

* Also confirmed by many players in my Free Company and other LinkShells, and on this thread in the General Forum:
