Been having the same lag issues for a while now as well. I'm on the East Coast in USA, (Behemoth) and connect to the SE server in Montreal. You'd think I'd be close enough to it, but during peak gaming times, usually around 7-8pm EST, I get significant packet loss and lag.

Tracing the packets, it seems there is one server somewhere after NYC, that keeps dropping packets. So one of my last hops that travels to that server keeps giving me lag in the game. I hope that I don't have to mention that it's really annoying...

I use Verizon FIOS and after contacting my ISP, they said there is nothing they can do personally. So I really hope Square can get things sorted out with that bad hop that seems to be tripping many East Coast players up.

Thanks,
V.
