Latency or connection issues?

[Aralyne]

Has the lag been happening all over for you guys? I've noticed I pretty much can't do anything in the new Heavensward areas because of the lag (which gets even worse later in the evening for me), but every so often, even when I'm in other areas not related to the expansion, I still get moments of lag that can last up to 10 seconds or more. And this isn't just with movements/skills either, I'm talking lag from simply interacting with npcs. It really sucks because I want to do the new Heavensward stuff but basically can't with the amount of lag I'm experiencing, and I simply don't dare do dungeons or primals right now >_>

It's definitely not my internet over here because it works with everything else and other games too no problem.

Have you tested the route specifically to the servers you are using for this game? Unless another game/service is also hosted on the Ormuco lines in Montreal and/or the JPNIC lines in Tokyo it is not an accurate comparison. Connecting to servers in Seattle or Chicago is not taking the same path and is thus not subject to the same potential congestion and outage issues.

Note the previous poster...issue was resolved by changing network configuration. That is why many resolve this with a VPN or proxy service--it allows them to alter their routing.
