I am having the same issue (Gilgamesh), currently 1,114 in queue lol Never seen it that high. I was going to town on a training dummy when I got the boot, then couldn't connect to data center, and now in the queue.

I have also been getting randomly disconnected recently (the last week or two) notably more than I had been before. I have only been playing since June and getting dced was a rarity since then, but the last few weeks my normally "Excellent" connection ping pongs between "Good/Poor" for some reason.
