    Enormous lags and constant DCs

    hello there

    I play on Shiva in the Uk and my game experience is beyond ridiculous. I just had new internet fit in our house and the connection about 50mbps and every time I lag in the game and I check my latency its about 1ms.
    I get constantly disconnected and I suffer so much lag not just in the world but also in dungeons and raids that It makes it almost impossible to heal and dodge the mechanics and its very frustrating to focus on a raid when you cant bloody see whats happening.

    So I would like to ask you to look into this because I know I'm not the only one with horrible lags that makes the game unplayable and I just renewed my subscription. this all started after 4.2 landed so might be a good thing to look into it your end guys.
    My PC is high end and I run everything on ultra at 70fps so that answers your question about my pc surely.

    please help me resolve this because its getting beyond a joke now. theres nothing worse than having lags and be unable to play the game altogether. it takes the fun away.

    sounds like a common problem happening from cross world interaction. I've ruled out bad connection problems as im playing other games perfectly. Fix Please!

    As I mentioned above, its PC version, not sure what u mean by nature of latency it just makes the game unplayable its wireless connection, no other programs running...I have tried to reset my router, checked everything on my pc that could cause it but nothing helped.
    I'm not being funny but its hardly only me that this has been happening to if it affects other players and its after the 4.2 patch came out, coincidence? I don't think so. The game was perfectly working like a charm before the update and now I get booted from the game at least 5-10 times in 2.5hours which is definitely not helping the case that I pay for a subscription and this makes my gameplay experience very unpleasant.

    Type of latency? Uhh, general lag and disconnects I guess, particularly in duties.
    Wireless
    None
    Relogging, tried turning router on and off again, internet speed tests worked fine but XIV still has the issues. Haven't tried to reinstall yet but I will if this doesn't get resolved soon.

    It's very bizarre Ariel, only XIV has these issues, my other online games like Overwatch work perfectly fine and since my internet is also fine I don't think it's a problem on our end per se. I tried logging in to my alt on aether data center and it worked perfectly so it got me thinking it might be a data center issue so then I tried my alt on the same data center as my main character but on another world in the same data center and that worked fine too. My main character on Phoenix is the only one that is having this issue for some reason. My friend thinks it might be a routing issue on your end but I'm not a tech person so I got no clue.

    I have stuttering lag as there can be slight delays in movement/actions then things catch up, only for split seconds at a time sometimes followed by 90002 disconnect error, happens mainly in instanced dungeons/areas, its very strange as this only started happening just recently
