I've been dealing with this issue on and off since maintenance last week. I've created this thread in an attempt to consolidate information on the issue in the hope SE will look into it.
The issue has been described as a "Rubber Banding" lag spike that causes everything to stop for 5-30 seconds, then to fast forward to the current point. I've noticed it mainly in instances.
My suggestion is to send an in-game bug report describing the issue and describe your experience with the problem ITT.
These are the threads talking about the same issue:

Edit:
I've been getting rampant 90k errors which very rarely/never happened prior to the last maintenance we had. Also I've dealt with rmt (not going to say who but they seem legit as a buddy in my fc use them too) twice so whether my account is going to get hacked or not is a probability and it might be a coincidence but the errors became more frequent after the first transaction.
Also I'm on PS3 and my isp might have a role in this as there is constant saturation in our area (high internet usage). But I'm not about to unplug every wireless/transmitting devices just to see what is sucking up band width. I just feel like this is more on SE's side than mine. -

In at least two threads I've posted a solution to disable network TOE/LSO that may fix the problem for some people, but it seems to be a firewall-driver-game interaction or game-driver-router action that is causing the problem. If you have a realtek chipset, update the drivers (they update their drivers fairly frequently.) Intel updated their drivers around the same time as early-access began, realtek updated yesterday -
09-26-2013, 01:04 PMMrKevinJSame, except I didn't have these problems at all prior to the last maintenance. I wasn't angry over the first week problems, seeing how server and log in problems during first week release is a common thing now for major online game releases. However now that it's almost a month into the games release and these problems still plague the servers for a good amount of players is not acceptable. They do server maintenance weekly yet they seem to do nothing to solve these problems. SE fix your fucking shit, please.Quote:

Just saying.
[edit]
Yesterday I have been experiencing some weird lag/latency issues myself too, for the first time I must add.
During fishing it occasionally took a few seconds for my macros to respond and it occasionally took the client nearly 10 seconds to register the fish I caught.
Mind you that I was fishing in a completely unpopulated area.
I'll have to see if the same problems are occuring tonight.
Some config info:
Location: Amsterdam, NL.
Internet connection: Cable 150/10 (Speedtest.net checked it as working normally, including my Ping.)
My router is programmed to use the Google DNS servers besides my ISP's own.
My ISP guarantees me that they do not and will not throttle P2P interaction.
The only thing I can think of as this being a local issue is that I run my private web server at home.
But I have capped the bandwith of that thing to a third of my full bandwith and I have also limited the amount of simultanious connections it allows.
Aside from that, there's nothing of interest on it so it shouldn't generate any heavy trafic. -
09-27-2013, 05:49 PMNoah_I don't think you have read all of the info people posted about their 90k issues, it has NOTHING to do with network card drivers or firewalls, go read on the tracert people posted, it is clearly a routing issue between players' ISP and NA/EU data center in Montreal.Quote:
