Lag on peak times since 2.55

Yeah right now I am using a vpn and no lag issues since, though I have a friend who has FIOS in the Northeast and said he has no lag issues at the moment during peak time. Anyone else suddenly not have any issues?

The lag comes and goes for me. It's been fine for the past couple of days except for tonight where it started around 7pm PDT. It's been unplayable for the last 3 hours.

So, an update to my last post. Today I had no lag at all until Coeurlregina spawned in a nearby fate. I was hit with instant lag the moment I stepped into that fate and I was seeing "packets received" spiking as high as ~76,000 over and over again. The lag went away shortly after the fate was over and most of everyone had left.

This seems to go along with what I've been experiencing lately. I have no lag or packet spikes when I'm in a housing ward or FC house. Slight packet spikes in zones outside of cities, and larger packet spikes in cities. Idyllshire, Mor Dhona, and dungeons are usually higher.
