Hey there.
I've been having horrible freezing lag leading to error 90006 disconnects starting today.
I've checked my connection and it is stable and works in other games like overwatch.
I can't stay logged in for very long as I disconnected just being in an area like say the wolves den.
I'm on the primal DC on leviathan if that helps any.
I've tried restarting/router reset/ and setting the executable to start as admin (all of them)
Any ideas? What changed since last night?
Who is your ISP? What state are you in?
Are you on wireless or Ethernet?
We noticed a lot of instability last week, due to the patch causing more traffic than normal, and I suspect some of the ISPs are still struggling with near DDoS levels of XIV traffic and metering it inappropriately.
Greetings SpritePR,
Really sorry to hear that you've been experiencing connectivity issues. Are you connecting to the game via Steam or through the Windows launcher? Aside from the steps you've already tried, I'd like to suggest the following troubleshooting to see if this helps with the connection issues you are experiencing.
Error code 90006 is most associated with interference with the game data. It can be a result from certain security/privacy changes on Microsoft Edge. Other times, it occurs when an application running in the background causes interference, such as anti-virus software, firewalls, media players, web browsers, communications software, etc.
Please make sure any background applications (including anti-virus programs such as Norton, Kaspersky, Windows Defender, etc.) have been disabled and/or closed to minimize game interference before attempting to log in.
Next, check the following Port Ranges on your router/modem to ensure that the following Port Ranges have been opened/forwarded/triggered:
▼TCP
54992 through 54994,
55006 through 55007,
55021 through 55040
If you do not see an improvement, please feel free to respond to this thread for further troubleshooting.
