Cannot connect to NA data center

I can't seem to connect to any NA data center, I keep getting the message: The lobby server connection has encountered an error (2002). I've tried connecting to the EU and Asia data centers and there is no problem... Any idea how to fix this? or is this server side problem or just server congestion? Will appreciate any info and help you can provide. Please and thank you

It's server side, I think. Me and my whole FC is reporting crazy lag, and disconnects.

3:15am pst.
still can't log in Gilgamesh server. Can pick character, but get error: connection with server was lost: 90002

Same problem with Coeurl Server

I cannot connect to Excalibur. I have been kicked out of server 2 times while playing, and now I can't get back into the game. I am getting error:
The lobby server connection has encountered an error. 2002

Aether is having a ton of issues. I’ve been sitting in Holminster Switch for the last 15 mins while my friends get continuously 90k’d or 2002 errored. ;w; We’re all on Cactuar.

EDIT: For some reason, I’m the only one that hasn’t been affected yet. Knock on wood.

I am also having issues. 2002, 10105, 90006, 90002. Crystal DC is getting DDoS'd again.

Same issues here on Lamia, Primal Data Center. Been struggling to stay on the server all night.

It's a bit disheartening that by being early, enthusiastic adopters of this expansion we have to tolerate servers that are overloaded. Everyone I talk to says it'll get better once casuals get bored with the expansion, but it just seems backwards. Shouldn't SE buff the servers something fierce to accommodate the rush ... you know the rush that makes them mad money?
