Got in, (Aether, Zalera) aaand booted 10 min later

I'm also having this issue. I originally logged into my main character on Coeurl without issue. I went to switch to an alt and got the lobby server connection error message 5006. After about 15 minutes, I was able to get on the alt.

Someone else in my FC mentioned they had been getting the error message as well when they were trying to log in.

Now I'm trying to get back on my main again and the error is coming back up.

I can connect to Chaos, Light, Elemental and Gaia data centers without issue. It is only a problem with Aether and Primal.

A quick update post would be appreciated SE~.

On the faerie world and I’m also getting kicked or d/c for error 5006, this may be a coincidence but it’s snowing hard up here in ND. Again not sure if that’s related.

Just got off with technical support about this issue and they said that they are "working on it" but refuse to give any more information. They can't even give a time frame of when this will be fixed and that I need to check the Lodestone.

Got kicked off and can't get back in, now it shows a 2002 error.

The issue definitely looks to be with the NA data center. I can connect to any other DC around the world, but even trying to access Primal or Aether gives either a 5006 or 2002 error.

C'mon guys
