"Time to see what my latency on the server is."

*Sending, Receiving.*

Oh good. Here I was hoping for a system that made sense.

Just open your task manager, press the performance tab, open the resource manager, then the network tab then choose FFXIV while it's running, that will tell you the latency you're receiving.

Now if only it showed it properly in game instead of having to do the above.

Sending is upstream, receiving is downstream, and they're both measured in bytes per second.

To get a better measure of your latency, you can ping your server's IP address at http://arrstatus.com/

That didnt really help. Unless I'm looking at it incorrectly, its doing the same thing as FF14 with the bit signals.

Look below. It's under TCP connections and under Latency.

I'm seeing 2 ffxiv's. Both have different ping. Which one should I be paying attention to?

Big number are bad right? And low number are good except 0.

Just do this.

Press start. Type CMD and press enter.

Type in the following line

ping 199.91.189.30

press enter

That is the IP for Adamantoise which is your server.

Thanks. That gave much more favorable results than task manager.

42ms ping to Diabolos

That seems pretty good.

Yay.
