Lag/Constant Disconnects after 3.55b

Hi there, Since I updated to patch 3.55b today 03/09/2017 I have been only able to stay logged in without being disconnected for a few minutes.

This problem has been recurring ALL day.
I get different error codes from [90002] to [90001] and [90006].

Things I have tried;

Restarting router
Restarting PC
Forwarding necessary Ports on my router

It's getting to the point where I can't even touch my daily duty roulettes or check on my retainer without being kicked off the game.

I would really appreciate it if someone could shed some light as to why this is happening to me and if there is a possible fix.

Sincerely,
Toshiro.

the 280 weapons killed the servers. Joking aside.... I had this issue only once in patch 3.4 and I changed dns and it worked. Never been kicked off the game like that though... just off the patch launcher.

This has been happening to me all day as well. I have also tried the above mentioned steps and am continuing to be disconnected. My tests also show that the disconnect is not on my end. Other applications continue to run when the game disconnects.

Same issues here, fresh restarts. Even touching for a retainer will cause a 10-20 sec lag of game not responding before syncs back up. Yet chat works fine.

Its bad when I go in raids and then miss some parts of the battle cause I am fighting the lag sync, or I just get DCed.

I am having the same problems. Constantly "red dot of death" next to my name. My healing arrives seconds later. Sometimes bringing up the conversation windows at the Grand Company or my retainers takes up to 10 seconds. Never had an issue before and every other game/website runs fine and fast without lags.

Hello, I've got the same issue since two days now. Many freeze for 2/3sec . So frustrating :(

Been having the same issue. I've tried everything I can think of on my end; resetting my router, my IP, reinstalling the game, even reinstalling my graphic drivers since they updated around the same time.

Same issue, getting disconnected since this morning in a 2-5 minute duration. Really annoying.

Same here, for two days now I get disconnected ever-so-often, and logging in again takes forever, server telling me I am still logged in for waaaay longer than normal.

Definitely nothing on my side / ISP side, everything else is working 100% fine, just FFXIV being almost unplayable.

I hope this gets fixed soon, the maintenance today definitely didn't do a thing about this for me :(

Experiencing similar things. Mostly runs fine, but after 5-10 min of play, suddenly a lag spike come. (3-4 sec long mostly)
I lost some fights because of this in PVP. In harder PVE content is not feel good either.

I tried similiar things like others to solve this, but its not worked. Its not unplayable or anything, more like a annoying problem.

Salty tears leaked into the server wiring, only way to fix is to buff anima weapon to 280.

Then we all lagged out after we got it!

since 3.55b i was able to play for a few days. but on the night of the 13th, it began slightly lagging. nothing too bad. by miday on the 14th, i couldnt play. any NPC would take a minute to register any action, and as of now... i disconnect every 5 minutes. My ping shows up to 3000ms in short spikes, but yet not any other game, streaming device, or program that uses internet is slowed. I have reset the router, reset my PC from the ground up, uninstalled and reinstalled the game, talked with my ISP, tried a few DNS reroutes, Mudfish, wtfast.... and yet, i cannot play. really sucks watching money just go to waste. tried every day from 8 am-10pm and its the same BS..

What, the ever living Thalls balls SE. I would like to play what i have paid for.

As Tribadoux said had days after patch with constant DCs. Would play during day normally and nearing night time would be hit with DCs not allowing me to play.
Atm it is 23:00 GMT +1 and againt DCs andomly started. can play for few minutes with lag before i get loged off.

Tested my connection before and now but it seems perfect. No hiccups from my ISP or my modem at all.

So i guess this is from server side. Nothing else could be problem as i tested connection and my computer.

If this was happening for most or all players, it'd be a server problem. If it's only happening for some people (as it appears to), it's probably an issue somewhere on the route between you and SE's datacenters. I know France has been having problems with Level3 recently, so that might affect some of you. Try a tracert to your server's IP and post the results - might give some pointers as to where things go wrong.
