Frequent R0 lag spikes and freezing

[Reika]

Not sure if this temp fix will apply, but it has helped in a few cases. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...or-Error-30002

Since I am using a wireless setup, I dont have those settings. Either way I have tried wired and wireless and both produce the same lag spikes. I highly doubt it is my computer setup. I can go play any other online game on it and I don't get these spikes. It never happened before 1.18, Even when doing those BW levequests with 7 full groups killing stuff near me, so its something that changed with the game thats causing it imo. It never disconnects me either. I've stared at the R0 for well over 30 seconds once. Funny thing is I can still chat in LS like I'm not disconnecting.

So I've been encountering this issue primarily between 1830 - 2030 GMT+8 time. Only things that suffer connection issues are FFXIV and Lodestone pages. I can browse the any other sites, converse on vent and download as per nomal. My connection is perfectly stable except this inability to communicate with SE servers primarily around these times each night, which is a royal pain considering it as at these times that we do events and is our prime play time.

Has there been any official comment from SE on this matter?

This is what I've been trying to say. Only FFXIV and Lodestone experience slowdowns, even slower during 'my' evenings to the point of R0, but slower than everything else at all times. Everything else is hunky dory.

Well sadly confirmed R0, well for me at least, isn't related to SE. Last night i decided to indulge in some black Friday sales on steam, and bought and downloaded 4 games. During that time, anytime a R0 occurred on FFXIV my downloads all hit 0KBPS. So that's really the last nail in the coffin for me. Unfortunately i don't think cox or whoever would know where the problem exists. It seems to be a wide-scale issue across the nation, seeing that multiple people in multiple states, with multiple ISPs are having the issue. Sounds more like a infrastructure issue, but idk what we can do about it, besides continuing to call and complain to our isps. Sigh
