For those with Verizon FIOS getting lag while playing FF14 on the Canada Data Center

Make sure you send in traceroutes with actual issues on em .. a clean one isn't helping anyone.

If the packet loss isn't accumulative then there really isn't any loss.

If the only loss you see is in the hop ae-11-11.car2.montreal2.level3.net .. then its prob router depriortization and no one is gonna do anything about it.

Whats the windows equivalent of an MTR?

There's a really good program called 3D Traceroute. I've been using it to diagnose at which point in the path between me and the game servers there's an issue. It will perform a full ping/traceroute in whatever interval of time you want to do.

And yeah, there's a level3 router in Montreal that was giving me huge issues last night. Had to fire up WTFast for the first time since playing this game due to how bad the lag was. 3-15 second lag spikes in between abilities or 90000 errors.

No one mentioned it was FioS at the time I played, only said TWC, but the lag I experienced on FioS made me quit =(

HOpe this gets fixed.

This tool a guildy sent for Windows gathering packet loss and pings over time. This is what you are looking for. I can immediately see my issues. BTW - it isn't just Verizon having the issue. I have Comcast - I just end up near this level3 link just like everyone else.
