Your character is a Sir, and that is all I have to go off of. I'm not trying to persuade you here with your strong belief of if it is a Square problem, though. I would just like you to be angry for the right reasons!
I did a little test of my own by switching to google's DNS, Comodo too. Still couldn't connect. I guess we shall just have to wait for the issue to be further looked into and resolved by Square in the two hours they are giving themselves. Then I can get right back into Deep Dungeon!!
