Hello,

No changes have been made to the network at all. The programs I have running alongside FFXIV is usually just Discord. I sometimes leave Chrome open but other than that, literally just Discord to talk to my friends whilst playing.

I have the Discord overlay turned off as well as the Nvidia overlay. (Because I have a GTX 1050ti.)

It happens as soon as I click "play" because I haven't been able to specify the server I want to play on. So I click play, choose Chaos and then it gets stuck on the "connecting to data center" loop.
