I am also in NY (Long Island) and have issues connecting to NA data centers. I have excellent connection when logging into EU datacenters though. Found that really strange, so I visited the forum, and I see I am not the only one having this issue. Issues started for me around 10 PM (EST) on 6/14. Still having the same exact issues today, 6/15.

Not helpful info really but just trying to add to the thread to add onto the amount of people. I am hoping they see this thread and help us!
