would seem that way. i assume the "lax30" is in L.A.

would seem that way. i assume the "lax30" is in L.A.

Hm, that would explain the same crappy connection to Japan that my Hawaii friends have too when we play Street Fighter 4. I would have thought that they'd have better ping since they're closer. I wonder if there's anyway around this that doesn't involve SE having to work with the ISP directly to get the dynamic routing changed somehow.

Wanted to first ask why this topic is still sticked?

Look at the first hop. It's over 300 ms. I live in the "lower 48" and my ping to that first hop (cpe-66-91-168-1.hawaii.res.rr.com) is less than 80 ms. So I don't understand how if he actually lives in Hawaii has a ping three times greater than mine.

Lag at Ifrit fight is way worse as the ping values suggest (at least two full seconds). As you can see, the trace originates in Europe, goes across the whole of the USA, to finally arrive in Japan.

Note: I was constantly R0-ing with 3 disconnects in one fight (take a look at my last 2 traces). However my speedtest.net results and pingtest.net results show nothing wrong with my connection. 13ms ping to nearest test server and 0% packet loss with speeds @ maximum. No connection problems when I got ported back to Ul'Dah.
