At this point I highly doubt our ISPs are to blame. All the other internet services are working to me (youtube, movies in streaming, FFXI...), and clearly we're up to 9 pages of people having big issues (not the occasional DC, but the inability to play the game entirely or close to that). We all have different ISPs and locations, so the only factor we all share in common is the XIV lobby server. This is definitely an issue on SE's end, not ours.
