Regarding Reports on Recent Connection Problems with the NA Data Center

[RayneBoemir]

Hello I am having problems as well. I came back after a long absence from the game and everything was fine, but a few days ago lag started hampering my ability to play the game, it is most noticeable when I am playing my BLM, and I am trying to cast Fire4 under Triple Cast; there are other times when it is noticeable, but this is the time when it is most apparent. I hit the key and nothing gets casted and I have to hit it again sometimes several times.

I am playing on PS4 I forwarded all the ports as suggested even though this has never been an issue before. I have also done all other recommendations including connecting the router/modem directly to the PS4 but the issue persists. I have ran a trace and I am seeing packet losses where the same players are having at NTT and also the address before the final one I am assuming this is the login server for FFXIV.
