Bad lag again with NTT's NA server network

[Khryseis_Astra]

The fact that a VPN doesn't always get around it and that it seems to affect more than just AT&T this time (think I saw a Comcast report in the thread recently) gives me reason to believe this issue's different than last time.

Yeah I’m on Comcast… my issues started about the time most of the AT&T users were starting to see some improvement! An FC mate further south from me is also seeing the issue; usually her VPN takes care of it, but not always. I just keep submitting the trace routes to SE because it’s not my ISP that’s the culprit, it’s theirs. This has been about a month for me now, and it’s near constant. By that I mean, I maybe get 20-30 minutes here and there, with no particular pattern, where the lag is still there, but tolerable enough to run a short duty, like a trial or normal raid. There has not been one day since June 11th that I haven’t had lag for mostly the entire time I’m on, and I’m on a lot. lol

Ah, so at least it's a shared problem across two different major ISPs, even though it still stings.

Also, can confirm my VPN has eliminated the latency/packet loss issues. My ping tests came back at 69 ms (nice) so that's about 8 to 10 ms more than what I had prior, which is negligible for me.
