Ever increasing lag

[Erra]

I just hope you don't mouse over that thing in UI that shows the amount of data you're sending or receiving ? :P

While in game press ALT+TAB then ALT+R type resmon. You should see the resource monitor now. Go to the network tab there should be ffxiv.exe in TCP connection then look for Latency column

Also you can PING and traceroute to NA/EU datacenter, in Resource monitor you will have IP of your server.

Umm yeah.

The latency is blatantly obvious when I heal someone and it takes a second to actually increase their health, mounting up on my Chocobo and immediately hitting autorun only for the mounting to stop movement, and finally my total inability to avoid red zones despite easily moving out of them WELL ahead of the finished cast time.

I can mount up and immediately hit auto run without issue in WoW and TOR. This game, i simply cannot.

And still, nobody has any idea what causes this.

It's an increasingly common issue.

I'm trying to consolidate info about it here:

Holy crap... i just changed the ''Large Send Offload v2 (IPv4) and (IPv6)'' settings and my connection turned to absolute CRAP! Now i am getting HORRIBLE lag spikes to which ive never seen before. Seriously, everyone on screen FREEZES for up to 5 seconds and then suddenly they all become SUPERMAN zooming across the screen like crazy.

If anyone has any information on this, even if of no use, it would be appreciated nonetheless.
