I suggest to quit blaming Square Enix and take responsibility for the quality of your network equipment and Internet provider. Also, try rebooting all network equipment you have access to. I personally had issues with connection (before Endwalker) that were fixed by ONT box reboot.
You need to remember that not all routing tables are done the same, so before you pipe up about the quality of my network, please make sure to know how the routing works as this was the issue when they fixed it about a year ago. I have done the rebooting, and unfortunately this is not the issue. When this happened before certain areas were able to access just fine as my raid group has people all around the states. When all the tracerts were done it pointed directly to NTT as stated. Square controls who they work with for their servers go through and it is at that step of the routing it has issues. Through my provider which I can see both through the provider side as I work for them as well as the tracert the connection works fine throughout the tracert until it is outside of the providers network and starts going through Square's provider side on the hops. Once it is outside of a provider's network the responsibility lies on the routing table of the company providing the service.
