North American Data Center Lag?

It seems to be starting to clear up.

Looks like hop 16 and 18 have cleared up. 17 still having a lot of trouble from time to time with packet loss but it's half what it was.

Probably the NTT datacenter demark node. if it was the switches in the SE racks we'd have bigger issues, and it would be isolated to 1 datacenter most likely, not all of them. each datacenter would have its own network stack for the server cluster so one datacenter wouldn't effect the other. Part of the reason for the split. 50% more network equipment to balance the traffic out.

Yep, input lag in talking to NPCs and crafting. Ran first ShB dungeon tonight on my alt with my hubby. I dc'd twice and the tank dc'd twice.

It's getting aggravating... just tried to do a PvP daily, and THAT was a mistake.

As others said, its not the server nor the datacenter. I've seen others have issues all day and I've been unaffected. No input lag, no disconnects. Friend of mine has had the issues all day pretty much. Tracert's people provided are showing where the issue is.

Restarting the servers would make the problem worse as the node that is having issues would suddenly have a mass login request if the servers were restarted.

I don't know if it is related but broadcasters on Twitch I was watching were also having some issues with their live-stream connection throughout the day.

Every time I cast peloton the animation comes 5ish seconds later. There is definitely something going on, Iv'e only just recently returned for the expansion though. Just one thing I noticed.

[Mightion]

Well, it seemed to resolve itself for me; I was able to run several roulettes without issues.

It did clear up for me around 11pm CST last night, though I have no idea what to expect today.

Apparently we can expect another day of lag, friends say they're getting dc'd left and right all of a sudden and things in game aren't moving for minutes at a time otherwise. :|
