Square, your NA/EU data centre has serious issues...

I hate calling people white knights but it does look like the OP has a fair point. From the very beginning he claimed that it was SE's DC issue. He didn't come here seeking for advice. He knew the issue like many of us and he came here looking for support from other people who have come to the same conclusion using the same methods everyone else used.

Sure sometimes traceroute shows a high ping hop near the subject, but those kinds of hops happen for every game on every kind of connectivity. No, the type of latency issue is far greater than the occasional blip that shows up on traceroute. I'm not a profession networking expert but I've built and worked with computers ever since I was 10. I know my way around a computer and a network. I know the diagnostic steps...and if I don't, I know where to find those answers. This issue is on SE's side. You can only ignore the masses for so long. Look at D3...lol

If the issue was on SE side, everyone would be suffering from the lags/disconnects and so. But I am not. In fact, many people are not.

If you want to complain for network, this is IP of datacenter 192.34.76.2. This IP is common for all people who want reach the game, everything before it just a path to it..

So lets say you are going to New York, but road you are on in Pennsylvania is bad. Are you seriously going to complain New York that your road is bad?
