Lag only in FF14, no where else on the Internet.

Make sure you are pingig the proper IP address. The ones at arrstatus are not entirely accurate. Each world is served on multiple ip's (at least 3 have been documented for Midgard) and SE has changed our assignments several times since that site went up, but that site still shows the same single address for any given world. Note also they list the same address for multiple worlds.

Open resmon or run a netstat once you are fully logged in to see what address you actually use (if you do it prior to loading fully into the game you may catch the lobby server that only manages the logins for all 12 or so worlds within it's cluster--it isn't used during gameplay nor zoning after that initial loading during login).

I ran a netstat but I'm not sure which of this avalanche of IP's would be the game server's.

EDIT: I found it in resmon. Yeah, I'm pinging the server fine, so I guess it's nothing to do with that. Still getting frustrating lag though. :-/
