Getting sick and tired of these constant DC issues.

I have disconnects very often too. At least twice per hour, sometimes more. But one thing is strange - when I was at the Cutter's Cry dungeon - I have no disconnect. (When I came out - I had three every 20 minutes). I wish SE will fix it asap, otherwise I wish SE staff has diarrhea as often as I have disconnects from their servers.
Look at the screenshot below - it is clear that problems with disconnect arose at SE servers.

My sister and I have both been kicked 3 times now (me in the midst of a crafting leve with a manual going.) I'm in Grid, shes at Broken Water and we don't run AVG or Microsoft Essentials.

Yup, I was busy farming tapers to join my ls in some Ifrit runs when I started my redballing. Everything was fine til the r0 rinse and repeat.

Glad im not the only one then
seems like the servers are down

[Fayette]

Server's aren't down, it just seems random people are chosen to get kicked lol We haven't been able to get back in without DCing immediately again What a waste of a Engineering Manual and 400 GC seals ; ;

hmm.. i c...
mb its my ISP? or my router... but thats very weird, nothing changed at my end. MB SE will figure it out soon

Don't know what is causing this but they need to fix it. It's frustrating to people and ticking them off. Can't get anything done when this is happening. I was trying to maximise my game time today due to tomorrow's patch and server merge because I won't be able to be on til Tuesday due to my job with patch/merge taking so many hours and this is frustrating.

It's not at your end, it's happening at SE's end. We once did a packet trace like one of the posters did with their ss and found the problem was with their end of the line not ours.

guess that is my cue to go do something else for a while.
thanks for the feedback guys

About 5 minutes into Darkhold and I had 3 people reporting constant disconnects, myself included. 2 of them we're in Ul'dah. I was in the middle of Darkhold, so different people, different zones.



A few minutes later I was able to get back in game after restarting the client....
