Bad lag again with NTT's NA server network

Hey all, can confirm issues are not resolve here a well with packet loss across the board on the NTT server nodes leading to the final node dropping packets again.

Quoting one the post from late night just to bring back up that something clearly was switched that "fixed" the connection issues. Now that we are back a peak hrs, the servers are struggling again. There is no freaking way that enough people all at once decided to log out during peak and cause the connection to be stable all night. Not with a drop like seen above.

Even with the connection being stable without packet loss, there is still in my opinion an uncomfortably amount of packet loss starting at the San Jose and Sacramento NTT nodes. As far as I understand though that doesn't matter as long as the final destination isn't dropping packets.

I'd recommend to keep sending tracert reports via the form provided to use here. May want to do in-game bug reports as well: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...a451d5a8daa66f

Also keep updating the forum of your ongoing issues and even if possible make its known on socials that the issues are still happening. At this point its is very clear this is an issue with the servers.

How frustrating.

Another day, more lag. Still experiencing extreme lag with AT&T and now my workaround, using my Verizon mobile hot-spot, is experiencing the same latency issues.

Log in to do island real quick only to notice the lack of lags. Have our prayers been answered?

[Rekts]

I spoke too soon. It's having hiccups but not constant like it was. Maybe they're working on it?

Here's mine from 6:40pm CST. Let us see...

Game definitely feels a lot smoother for me. Did some dailies for about an hour and didn't notice any rubberbanding. I'm holding out hope that whatever they did will hold up!

[radhaz]

Just did JP (Anima/Mana) dungeon run, still lagging badly.

[Rekts]

It's definitely better. I've been grinding CC for an hour and only one match has started lagging.

Pls let this finally be over lol.
