Delayed actions/lag - game or internet?

[Zavior]

For the last few weeks, I have noticed a lot more constant lag, delayed actions, everything seems slow, the actions don't seem to go off after pressing the button, the recast timer doesn't start right away and seems to count down slowly, especially in long burts od dps. My character seems to move more slowly, and gets hit by mechanics if I don't anticipate it prior. Everyone says my dps has really suffered.

I've been blaming my internet (wired, fibre, canada east coast) and spent hours with tech support and having the techs out but wondering if its the game.
Willing to try anything at this point as im on the verge of quitting the game.

Good morning and thank you for posting in the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums

Are you connected directly to the router or are you using WiFi? Do you experience lag in a specific area in the game?

connected directly to my router, the same lag seems to happen on all 3 computers I tried too - all of which are more than capable of running the game. And yes it happens everywhere, from dungeons and raids even in my private housing dummy or SSS. Even when clicking through my retainer etc, it feels like the internet but I've had the tech here sooooo many times and get over 800download, 300ish upload...

Same. Been happening to me since yesterday morning. On ps4 wired connection. Reset my router and modem. Called my isp, they said everything working fine. I noticed in game. My sending is fine, just receiving goes to 0 at times and spikes up a lot. Also getting error code 9006.

Thank you for the reply Zavior.

If you are experiencing this kind of issue while using a wired connection, you are most likely running into a routing issue along your way to the server. This doesn't mean that your internet connection is faulty or that you cannot connect to other services, but you may run into some trouble along this particular route.

In this case, I'd recommend contacting your ISP and making a report with them.
