Patch, can I have it?

I just did a ping test for ffxiv us server got "88ms" wondering what's very one getting

Here's how to test ping:

1. Open up a the run interface (Windows Button + R).

2. Type in ‘CMD’ – this will bring you to the command prompt.

3. Type in ‘PING <IP Address>’ – you can find IP addresses of each FFXIV ARR server below.

4. At the bottom you will be given the minimum, maximum and finally your average ping.

North America Datacentre | square-enix.montreal.com | IP address: 184.107.107.176

Europe Datacentre | eu.square-enix.com | IP address: 209.130.141.243

Japan Datacentre | jp.square-enix.com | IP address : 202.67.53.202

My average results from Newcastle NSW with ISP Internode are: Japan:158, Europe:296, North America:264.

Wrong server IP addresses. Not sure where you got them from.. but those are website hosting servers (not even on Ormuco's segments either).. they are not used for the game.

To get a better metric, need an actual game server. Can get them with netstat/resmon once you are fully logged into the game. Otherwise, you can use the lobby servers:

neolobby01.ffxiv.com
neolobby02.ffxiv.com
neolobby03.ffxiv.com
neolobby04.ffxiv.com
neolobby05.ffxiv.com
neolobby06.ffxiv.com

Odd addresses are in Japan, even ones are in Canada.

Original post is over a year old... likely some information copy/pasted from information that was out there during beta or something. We've posted it over and over in the forums about how those IP's are invalid, and how to find the proper IP's. At least in the post you sited it actually gave the DNS names of the IP's... which should be a big clue that it's not a game server: eu.square-enix.com (go ahead... click it). But anyway... now more people will <hopefully> note that those addresses are invalid as game servers.

The front-ends for our worlds are still up, so the IP's are still responding to pings... for now at least:

The lobby servers are currently offline though, so you could only ping the world servers by their IP's. Just don't know which one your client is using yet.

Like I mentioned in the previous post, if you don't have a DOCSIS 3.0 modem that could be a source of the speed issues.

Thanks. Their service includes a modem, so if it's not the proper one then it's still their fault.
