Good morning and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

We apologize for the trouble and inconvenience you and many others have experienced. The sticky thread we have created is specifically for the issues related to the North American Data Centers. This thread was created so we could compile as much data as we could in order to assist with our investigation. It does sound like you are exhibiting the same symptoms so I would suggest performing a trace route and posting it to that forum (as outlined here: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...er/page18/#173). However, we can provide our standard troubleshooting suggestions if you wish. I understand this is not the solution you are looking for, however, please understand that this information is valuable to us finding a proper solution.

We hope we can be of assistance in helping you enjoy the exciting world of Final Fantasy XIV!
