Error 90000 and Serious Lag issues

I have been disconnected due to the 90000 error about 10 times yesterday, and it just happened again today. This is getting beyond a joke now, especially as most of those times I was in a dungeon.

Pretty much the entire weekend for me so far has been VERY laggy as well. For example, I am trying to mine and I click the action and wait about 10 seconds before the menu pops up. Then I have to wait a further 10 seconds before my character actually mines after I press the button to do so.

Doing my Ifrit runs were pretty much impossible. Playing as a Paladin so I need to stun at the right time. This won't happen because everything just stops for about 5-10 seconds at a time, so I don't see the attack that needs stunning, or Ifrit has jumped and zoomed across the screen by the time things start moving again.

I am playing on the Moogle server, by the way.

I really hope something can be sorted, or at least worked on to fix things like this.

90000 in Ifrit once again, followed by a 10102 error when trying to log back in.

How am I supposed to complete an instance where my sole role is to block an attack if I cannot see or tell if said attack is coming? :(

Same problem. Except on Behemoth.

Put Exodus on this list of issues

Just been getting 90000 2 times within 20 minutes, while doing something as exciting and graphic blasting as.......... Fishing...

good to know that im (we're) paying square just to disconnect from the game. yeah come play FF14 and experience the amazing 90k.

I am actually glad that it isn't just me getting these issues....but on the other side of the coin, I am also sad for you guys because it is happening to you as well :(

Forgot to add. The massive lag / delay issues has been going on for 3 days now. and i KNOW it isn´t my connection. 42 ms and 59 fps. HM´s are somewhat.... Challenging.

I'm having the same problem today on Gilgamesh. I've had this before but it is much worse now and the error 9000 disconnection just started today.

Having same issues on Ultros.

This is driving me insane! I'm getting 29ms ping, yet getting 90000 every 5 minutes, and everything freezing in game upwards of 30s at a time, constantly, since yesterday (Saturday, 12th). I cannot play! I don't know what to do, ports have been forwarded, firewall is off and all that jazz. God, if anyone has any solution or partial fix please help us!

same on famfrit yesterday & today.

Beyond a joke is an under statement, i only paid my subs yesterday, if it was like this 2 days before theres no way i would have subbed up.

SE really need to get a grip or numbers are gunna drop bigtime :s

Same thing started for me last night (sat night EST) and just snowballed into being unplayable tonight. Fates and dungeons were out so I thought I'd run some leves but nope, just asking the leve to start took about 30 seconds due to lag and then the actual leve was unplayable as the monsters wouldnt show up for me, even though they could hit me. I've been playing on Balmung, on the PS3, and was debating getting the PC version too because I heard it was less unplayable but if this is going on for PC players too I dont want to spend the extra money >:(

90k error 3-5 times a day spending less and less time on this game now frustrating!

Same issue on Ultros as well. Really putting me off the game.

Edit: Urgh, don't actually think I will renew my sub.

Same thing here, all weekend. So annoying, I was ready to punch a hole in the drywall next to me. :/ Please sort this out asap, for the sake of my wall.

Same here as well. I did more tv watching than playing yesterday because I had to have something to do while 90k-ing every 2 minutes. Eventually I gave up. This whole weekend was a bust in the play department because of all the 90k-ing :C

ISP route to SE server problem. Use a secure VPN to reroute to SE server will ressolve issue! My friend who is also from Singapore was using M1 ISP and had this issue ( was not facing this issue from CB till now ) . Use a VPN to reroute and ressolve this problem.

im having the exact same problem (on Phoenix) for 2 days now... whenever im engaged in combat either dungeon or fate i get these Huge lag spikes... everything freezes for 20 seconds or more sometimes it unfreezes and i see everything moves again in like a fast forward motion... and most of the time its too late cuz half of the party is dead if not all... and i get dced alot of times aswell and get the 90000 error :( hope it gets fixed soon this is frustrating << specially for a healer >.<

sorry but not everyone will have the knowledge to do this, its upto se to sort it, not us. This the only game I and many others have this prob with and its only jus started for me. As many others have said we aint guna pay subs 4 sumit we cant use.

If it was a routing problem then wouldnt it only effect those of us on certain isps and from certain parts of the globe? As it is its effecting players from many different countrys using many diff isps, so it seems more like a network issue to do with se part, not us.

I believe it has something to do with the ISP throttle thingii, when i switch to my old 3mbps Starhub cable line it works fine.

For M1 fiber line, problem starts at 8pm ends at 2 am (GMT+8) weekdays, Weekends whole day. It was fine from open beta till like last week or so.

Why is ffxiv detected as P2P? If it was a free to play game I can understand saving bandwidth, but paying subscription is another thing....

I dont think its a p2p problem as im on a dedixated isp with no thottling for p2p, also same as you, this only started for me about 2 nights ago, been a nightmare since, im gunna do a tracert when im home from work tonight, I can bet that the packet loss is at se front door, but will see.

A couple of maintenance's ago I did notice people on shout saying this always happens right before a patch. If that has anything to do with it?
P-ing me off something chronic.

Same shit here still. Tried to do CM a couple of times now when I got off work, but it was impossible due to SE's BS. My ISP is fine, this crap is on your heads SE.

Same on Phoenix crazy lag spikes never had problems like this ever before

Never had this issue until today has happened 5 times.

What annoys me more is there is never any info to even acknowledge there maybe an issue, what is the use of tech forums?

While it can be for a variety of issues, normally it is not throttling or anything related to your ISP regardless what SE say's(Aside from the random connection lost 1-2 times a month which most companies experience downtime at some point). Basically the typical 90000 error is due to some kind of overload to your wireless adapter. So when you get 90000 your adapter resets completely real quick, something in the programming is causing data to jam up and reset the adapter. I am not sure if it happens when you are wired then if so its worse than I thought.

I have attempted many things to fix this error even spending more money trying to fix it than I have on the game + 90days sub. First I called my ISP to verify throttling wasn't on, which is when I found out they were actually upgrading their hardware to make it even faster! Second I bought a better cable modem(Previous was 10 years old). Third I reinstalled the entire game. Fourth I bought a better wireless adapter. Conclusion? Nothing fixed.

So keep in mind, if you notice you lose internet connections for 1-2seconds at the same time as 90000 (Though you will only notice if you exit game super fast or mumble/vent d/c for short period) its overloading your adapter some how and I have no idea how to fix that or if you even can :/

If you read the sticky at the top, this forum is for players to help other players with issues, not tech support for SE.

Your explanation actually make sense in regards to my situation. My internet does go down for a few second every time 90k comes up. Some nights it will run very smooth and some i will get 90k every 5 min. DF lag also makes the game unplayable making titan and AK pretty much impossible. I hope we can find a fix soon :(

thank you for your effort :D

When will SE fix the server-wide latency issues that started to occur after the last 5pm-2am maintenance? It wasn't really there only until nearly two weeks ago, roughly. Now it's in full blast all of the time. It feels like Beta again where I'd be getting 90000 and 3102 errors everywhere since I'm pretty much unable to do anything which requires other players in a group function thanks to the latency spikes which constantly threaten to strangle my exploits at every turn, and should they not threaten, they physically do. My ISP is golden, connection is great, and everything else works. SE, please hear your children's cries and patch up our knees.

I apologize for blatantly whining while I know nothing of the root of the issue, tech-stuff, or hopeful ways of attempting to address my issues better. (Though the thread voices nearly all of it.)

(I do not nor have not received either/any 90000 or 3012 errors since that maintenance to upgrade their server capacities. It's solely lag and latency issues I'm suffering through.)

It's Sqaure Enix, they've been half assing everything they touch the past 13 years. Don't get me wrong I love FF14 ARR but everything that's wrong with it is hardware/software/on SE end. They completely dropped the ball on this game when they didn't even expect it to do well in the first place.

well.. i dont use a wireless adapter.. i prefer wired using rj45.. Also this only started for me about 3 days ago.... was fine for a month (even when lots were getting this error due to server capacity, i was fine!) so i dont think its anything to do with what you mentioned all i prob would have been getting it all along & not just starting now.

Basically this started when SE decided to do there last "Maintenance" ...imo summit went majorly wrong & they just don't wanna own up to it & instead leave us wait until the next downtime of "maintenance" where the problem will (hopefully) magcally disappear.

Also had this around 2-3 weeks ago: huge lag issues. Got fixed and was going well even on weekends until last Saturday morning. Was perfectly ok Friday night then when I woke up Saturday morning, the issue was back. Was hoping the maintenance would fix the issue but ping to server is still 100 ms or more higher than previous. ISP is still performing the same so this is obviously an SE issue...

So, by the looks of it se have done squat about this issue in the hotfix, great service! Wonder how many will be quitting this week! Very very poor to say the least, you can add as much content and other gimmicks in hotfix, but it means nowt when you cant play due to dc,s and lag issues.

Massive lag issues since this morning, even worse than it was before... Playing on EU, and I'm sure the problem is the fact that the servers aren't even in Europe. However, my usual ping of 400, which is bad, has been constantly 4000-5000 before getting disconnected. Please fix this Square, I cannot play this game at all.

I may as well cancel my account seeing as I cannot play even though I want to.

I did Coil tonight with my FC and everyone in the party had the 90k error at some point along with lag, one person had it before we went in also. In the end we had to abandon the run because of it. I assume it has something to do with either the transfers or patch as it's never been a problem for the last few weeks.
