Hello, I'm from Singapore and have just started playing FF14.

Currently I'm experiencing higher latency compared to other players in the region to JP Datacenters - average 180ms for me while others are getting anywhere from 60-90, even those that are using the same ISP as mine.

I have contacted my ISP on this issue and provided with the ping+tracert to them and they have replied that they tried to reroute my connection and it still comes back with 20+ hops and 180ms.

The network team requested for a reverse traceroute from the servers to me to check if the route is symmetrical - is there anyway to obtain this?

The IP that I've ping/tracert is 124.150.157.158 (taken from https://arrstatus.com/ under Elemental)

Any help would be appreciated . I have provided my tracert results at then end. Thanks!
