Constant lag/delay (region: Qatar)

[ThundraO]

Greetings ThundraO,

I'm really sorry to hear that it appears that you may be experiencing connectivity issues. We would like to ask for the following information to get a better idea of the issue:

- Error messages (If any):
- Has this been a long on-going issue or has this only been occurring very recently:
- Frequency at which error occurs (If this occurs during specific hours, please provide the date(s), time and timezone):
- Are there other programs being used when running FFXIV?:
- Please re-confirm the ISP and what region/country are you connecting from?:

We would also like to ask what you have tried so far to alleviate the issue:

Thank you for posting in the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums

Thanks for getting back to me Eenkalzet!

- No error message, only when I disconnect (but that's because internet is down) but it's the general one, nothing relevant because of this issue.

- This issue has been happening since I arrived to Qatar, but before (in Europe, Germany) it wasn't an issue at all.

- I tried to test this individually but it's happening almost on all times. Although I noticed a bigger delay during peak hours but even in early morning it still delays enough to mess up craft macros, e.g. /ac then <wait .2/.3> no longer works because of internet delay. I had to extend them to .4 and .5 and even then sometimes it still skips a step.

- Discord, mostly voice chat for Savage content, although not using it ***sometimes*** reduces the latency, but even without it, it often persists sadly.

Please let me know if you need additional info. Thanks a lot!
