Error 9002 and constant connectivity issues with NA Data Centre

[JoninRock]

I'm having this issue very recently, I asked my friends (who lived in the US) and they never encountered any issues. I've received major lag spikes during combat and soon booted either 90002 or 90006 issue, it's getting to the point of being extremely frustrating not enjoying Patch 3.3's content. I have tried changed my DNS, my router and reset my PS4 connection and it had no effect. I would appreciate an update from anyone who plays this same in my country (Australia).

Malboro Server, NA Aether Data Centre, I live in Perth, Australia and also with Optus.

I'm having the same issue as well. I would keep getting 200002 Lobby server errors. If I do get in the game, I would disconnect 5 minutes after. The only way to circumvent the issue for me is to use tunnelling services such as Pingzapper. Here's my info:

Country: Singapore
ISP: Singtel
Server: Balmung.

However, when I connect to other data centers (EU and JP ones) and login to their servers, I do not experience any connectivity issues at all.

I think ive been disconnected maybe 6 times today. twice during cutscenes. i go ask around and im the only with this issue in my free company. never had a connection issue till maybe a couple days before 3.3 and now.

On Midgarsormr.

Apparently mine started disconnecting in dungeons and only dungeons. Then it started affecting the main world now it disconnects upon log on. Get to shoot some rats that don't fight back.
I just get 90006 all the time, is that the same as 90002?

I've noticed I also get similar packet loss issues with Umontreal.ca (funnily enough, same city as my server). If it's not optus, then my guess is that would have to be where it routes to is the issue (still an issue with optus imo). Friend of mine in brissy and another in Townsville is with Internode and both have zero problems with the same server I'm connected to (jenova).

Oh and since patch 3.3 I now get error code 90006 and can't play longer than 5-10mins before getting d/c'd.

I think it's definitely an Optus issue because you don't see any other people getting these issues. I spoke to Optus and the only advice they gave me was "to contact the server hosts", despite everyone else being able to play the game. I just wanna play 3.3

Armidale, NSW, Optus NBN

Same problem, started about Fri 3rd of June and has progressively gotten worse. I can usually connect fine, and depending on the population in the area it runs OK for a few seconds to a few minutes, but then nothing and 90k

I'm definitely thinking it is an Optus problem as I get the same issue tethering my mobile, which is also on Optus, but an old Telstra dongle works just fine. Also, for some reason the PS4 seems to work a bit better than my PC, and I haven't had an issues with other games (or websites, or streaming)... but they may be hosted more locally.

I was talking to one of the tech support today, but she doesn't have any idea what I was talking about and suggests me to talk to SE Support. They keep claiming their internet is "Fine" and I mentioned people who plays this game under the same ISP were having the same issue, again, unhelpful response. Better try my luck contacting through other ways.

I never had any issue with this game until recently, but since not a lot of other players are affected (at least of some aussies with different ISP), I'm definitely think there's some problem from Optus' side.

Chiming in to confirm another Optus AU (Victoria) customer having the same problem. I really hope this gets resolved somehow : (

Also Optus Australia (NSW), having the same problem constant lag spikes and dc :\
