Widespread issues for Australian players right now.

Connections to Materia DC seems to be problematic from certain regions, cannot reach servers in range:
- 153.254.80.75-82

I can ping the servers over a VPN but cannot reach anything when the VPN is disconnected, seems to be a major routing issue in/around the sydney datacenter.

Using a VPN can alleviate the issue by re-routing traffic through an alternative route, mixed results from multiple players I have talked too.

Issues began around 5:30PM AEST, still ongoing at 8:00 PM AEST
