I have already tried all of the troubleshooting items in this thread. None have worked. ISP says the fail is not until outside of the area, they are not at fault. What is the fix?

I posted here a few weeks ago about rubberbanding happening during instances, duties and combat but now it's spread to towns. Low populated towns even. Everything is teleporting, retainers are taking ages to appear at the bell. I decided to run a trace route again and lo and behold the problem is actually worse.

Last time I only had one time out but now it looks like I'm lucky to even stay connected to the server at this point. I know it's not your guys fault on the forums and I feel bad that people are upset with you when this is out of your control but at this point this is unacceptable for a sub based game. Overwatch was having login issues today and it was fixed literally within the time it took me to go get dinner and drive back. Keep in mind the game only has one up front payment, not a sub based one like XIV. These packet losses across your ISP servers have made the game nigh unplayable for me at points and made savage raiding a nightmare. I shouldn't have to play roulette within my daily roulettes to see if I don't have connection issues anymore. If I didn't love this game so much and have so much invested into it I would have unsubbed by now. The fact it took blizzard literally no time to fix this issue as opposed to this one I've been reporting for almost two months now is infuriating. I am also not on some island out in the pacific with a pineapple for a router using mcdonalds wifi. I'm right next to the servers in cali on a wired 5G connection so I KNOW it's not me. Please contact upper management and get this sorted out.
