Bad lag again with NTT's NA server network

[Allison_Grimvault]

Still lagging badly for the 5th straight day. I can't believe this shit.

Been following the thread for a couple days now but figure I should chime in too.

Also on AT&T fiber and I'm up on Lake Erie. Local friends who also play on a different ISP (Spectrum) aren't having any issues. Current trace:

Ridiculous how long this has been happening.

It's back in style. The hopium train has derailed before leaving the station.

Well, looks like VPN purchasing it is!

[LinaGiggles]

Yeah still no change. Someone said the servers went down last night at 3am and I was hoping it was a fix but clearly not. Since I got on at noon and try to pvp and rubberband and pausing and going. So I turn VPN on for now again until more updates. Yeah still AT&T fiber person here as well. Crystal Shard.

Like clockwork

Its infuriating, with no end in sight.

Post-NA server outage and maintenance, and still not working. Amazing! Wish SE would service their non-JP players at the same quality. Not acknowledging that there has been issues with their NA data center routing for a full decade, and now outright leaving their player base in the dark when their decision to go with NTT (instead of any other well-established company with more developed infrastructure) continues to blow up in their faces. For a game that has evolved to be one of the biggest in the world, it is time to treat us better, and for us to stop putting up with this nonsense.

While I agree with nearly all the points... they did at least acknowledge the issue.

No official Lodestone "mea culpa" yet, but one would think that it's incoming if things don't improve quickly.

[Aelius]

Didn't really count that one since it's linked to a Lodestone post from a year ago, and was linked for us to submit our traceroute information on the form linked there.

I lost power at my place for about 2 1/2 hours so I don't have ping graphs for when the lag starts.

Power back and graphs are graphing. Looks like the pings are still bad. It's hovering from 80-100ms. Like in the past, I don't expect packet loss to start till 1 or 2pm. So in about an hour we will see.

But so far not looking good.

Does Grafana let you do agent feeds for MTR data?
