Error 90000 (90k) and others relating to it

[Xruptor]

I've had these issues since the first time I logged in. I've been a paying subscriber for almost 5 months.
The thing for me is that I can be on the same network as my girlfriend, and she doesn't have any issues at all. We can switch cables around all we want, we can use different systems, the same thing happens.
I have a thread called Heavy lag that describes in more detail. What you show with your traces is simply that they don't have a good infrastructure in the US. Something that is already well known.

So please, no more traces. They do not help, and SE and the companies involved are well aware of the problem already. What you're doing is simply flooding a thread.

Just because the issue does not immediately reflect your problem or solves your issues doesn't mean it's invalid or doesn't exist. There can be a multitude of reasons why people are affected by the 90k issue. Yes infrastructure is one of them and it so happens that solved my issue on my end. A trace on my end has determined I'm no longer getting dropped packets and in retrospect I'm not getting 90k disconnection errors either. I respect your opinion, but requesting that no more traces be done is a bit arrogant if you feel your solution or investigation is the only avenue to tackle the issue.

Another thing if you feel I'm flooding a thread, then I believe you're gravely mistaken. Please take a look at the enormous amounts of threads related to the 90k issue. I suppose those people must be flooding threads as well, or maybe the newly created threads each day about the 90k is flooding as well. Regardless, I try to stick to this thread as much as possible and occasion have responded to some folks expericing the same issue. Which I see you do also, you even request assistance for the 90k issue in this thread (http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...07#post2136407).

If you don't like this thread in the forum then don't read it or don't post in it. There are plenty of other threads you can spend your time to read or follow.

That being said, it appears that some of the servers are no longer being routed through Level 3 at least from the Central portion of the USA according to a few friends of mine. Is anyone still being routed through Level 3 on their server?

I'd like to add myself to this list. I haven't stopped getting 90Ks and considerable lag beginning today. Playing on Sargantas.

I have been getting 90k every so often since the maintenance on 23rd June. Server Masamune. It like to choose abd time too. Like when i in queue long time in df it pop and i need requeue. or when in turn 9 last part and poof pop and restart the fight >.<

Yes, it very much is. However, no amount of tracing will help. It's not all bad, don't get me wrong. I just mean that they are aware of it. They know where the problems are, and I guess they are working on it.

Before June 23rd did you get disconnections at all? Now that your getting disconnections how often is it?

90k's started hitting people hard on Exodus today, including me.

^ same for Shiva

edit: looks stable for me now, no disconnects or lags for 20 minutes

So, coming back to this after a couple more days of unstable connections, and finally figured out how to get the exact IP address (thanks X! Though on my machine, it's Resource Monitor, not Manager) which for Ragnarok is 199.91.189.51. My problem now is that the pathping doesn't even appear to be going through to Ragnarok at all...it seems to be going through Level3 and stopping on one of their Montreal servers. There's minimal loss on the way, 1-3 % if any. My question now is....what the heck does this mean? o.O

See and that's the difference, I tried your IP address for your server Ragnarok. It turns out my connection doesn't go through Level 3 at all and only goes through one Montreal server. I get zero packet loss and don't have any disconnection issues. Which is the same thing I get for the Adamantoise server. I'm really starting to think it's Level 3.

Alright I don't know much about this but the game is unplayable on my end and this just started after being fine for months. I'm on diablos and here is the information I was able to obtain. I know very little about this but I seem to be seeing quite a bit of lost on here. What can I do to fix it or who do I need to call?
