    Original Poster Here with an Update: Still having the disconnect issues, but I did find something else out that might be relevant to my issue? (Not sure, wish I was more knowledgeable about these things)...ANYWAY, apparently my ISP upgraded my connection speed from 20 Mbps to 250 Mbps recently and keeping me at the same price per month (they are majorly upgrading their speeds for every customer in the service area and revamping their plans). So, what I did notice in a speed test through their website is that I'm actually only getting about 95 Mbps instead of 250 Mbps. So, I check my router which they provided to me in my service installation over 5 years ago, and searching that make/model tells me it's only capable of a max of 100 Mbps. So, being the layman that I am, could that be causing an issue and making me disconnect? Like I'm being throttled or something because the speed I'm supposed to be getting is out of sync with what my current router is capable of? I plan on ordering a new router today with one or two day shipping (sick of this sh*t and I want to play!) so I can actually get the new connection speed I'm paying for, but hoping to get some possible insight into whether or not this could potentially also be causing my connection issues with FFXIV.

    I'm doubtful, but thought I'd ask, but considering Guild Wars 2 was fine (no lag, no disconnect), hulu/netflix streaming just fine, and everything else I've tried working fine...I'm more leaning towards a bad hop somewhere between me and the FFXIV data center, but I don't know how to read a trace route (I know how to run it, just don't know what all that info means that shows up). Please let me know if you want me to copy/paste a trace route here.
