Exodus World: Server disconnects for last 5 days :(

Getting "disconnected from Server" and game closes randomly but often. No common thread or moment to figure out why or when it happens specifically. This isnt happening in any other game or online service.

Mainly in raids and dungeons but a few times just when in the world.

Good morning and thank you for posting in the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

How long have you been experiencing this issue? Are you using a direct connection to the router or WiFi?
