Controller becoming unresponsive periodically

[crc0427]

I found some weirdness today and for the last hour or so the problem is gone! Here's all I did:

- I put the game into full screen mode (not borderless window), applied with correct resolution to monitor
- I then returned the game to full screen borderless windows mode, applied

No issue for an hour!

Fingers crossed. Maybe it reset some weird configuration file that was off?

I don't think the port forward will change anything. I play on my laptop behind the same firewall without the issue

Sometimes that does work. But regrettably, it's not a permanent fix. The issue will come back.

and... it's back. caused me to lose 9 peacock ore this morning. THANKS SE.

Leads me to believe it's an issue with the config file or something.

I just got myself a new router and tried the above advice that was given to me by the tech support guy. It seems to have worked! Still getting lag issues, but my unresponsive controller issues did not happen. Time will tell if they come back, but I am hopeful that I managed to find a good solution!

I just added the port forwards. We'll see how it goes...

Added port forwards and changed around my graphical settings. Still have the issue. I am incredibly frustrated right now.

Port forwarding as mentioned seems to have fixed my controller issues

I got another controller issue, it rarely happens, but when it does, everything goes down the drain. What happened is, my face and shoulder/bumper buttons will get "struck", even though both analog stick work fine. Even my "ESC" key on the keyboard strucks as well, so the only way out of it is to hit Ctl + Alt + Del and forced closed FFXIV:ARR through Windows task manager. Currently playing on Windows 7 with Wireless Xbox controller for PC.

Hate to be the bad new bear after all your attempts to fix Hakuro but the problem ive noticed is i do fixes too that work here and there then don't but its every few maintenance's that this breaks so chances are your just on one of the maint that works Last nights maint re bugged my controller again and I hate to complain when so many complain about everything but as a serious end gamer who doesn't play keyboard, this is almost enough to make me quit.. I look like a fool when I auto run off the side or cant move and eat a landslide. It's embarrassing to be a Ilv 90 blm auto running off the edge fof demon wall and being told that since player x and y have no controller problems it's me.. Esp when SE says nothing ever ; ; Ive played xi since 2004.. and xiv since 2010. I love the FF mmos more then any mmo ive ever tried but this is literally game breaking to the people who experience it
