Unbearable server lag since yesterday

[nightelfcrawler]

Not sure if this is helpful... it may just be coincidence that we are mostly on comcast, after all it's one of the more popular internet providers for the US. Since people from Europe have encountered this it makes me think it's not a comcast thing.

Here's my pingplotter for tonight, while lag is currently occurring right now.

Here's a ping to google.com:

And here's a screenshot of pinging the FFXIV Ether server:

Seems like to me, it is something on SE's side from those images.

I didn't call in, since I used to work for Comcast, and I know how hard it is to actually get something escalated from a tier 1 representative. I made a forum post on Xfinity's forums, since reps that are a bit more knowledgeable reply to forum posts (sometimes). Maybe if we light this post up with replies, it will get attention? https://forums.xfinity.com/conversat...2c887da0f3e16b

This is an NTT issue. I hate those guys so much. Not sure how much comcast o rSE can do to get NTT to address the issue.

Helps if I finish typing xD

your welcome, and i do agree i'm not too fond of the idea of having to pay a secondary sub just to play but i thought i would share anyway since the patch is just around the corner and there might be more like me who would be willing to pay to play without the lag when it comes. ^^

The fact that it keeps happening is just completely unacceptable.

This lag has been happening every night since at least Monday. It's bad enough that I often see everything freeze for more than 3 entire seconds. I don't know how we're supposed to enjoy the new content that's dropping on Tuesday when the connection to SE's servers is so poor.

More lag problem, going to log out for now since I can't do anything with so much lag

daily reminder here that its still lagging... all of my FC are cancelling events due to this.. any MODS here that would require communication please

Lag is confirmed back tonight during prime time around 9pm eastern-12 midnight or so. This seems to really be bad in savage content. I've never had this lag before clearing savages, just started this week. Can the Moderators at least respond to this thread with some sort of information on how this is getting addressed or that it's at least being looked at?

We have the same issue in europe server .
datacenter chaos .

Back to say it's still a problem. It's not as bad as two nights ago but still annoying.
