Problems with connection (R0) lag

[Dst]

Same issue since Wed. Cox 50mbps/10mbps (get about 45-50 down and 15-20up) in Las Vegas. Game freezes for 2-8 seconds, gets major packet loss and then catches up. Can't do much at 50 because most of the dungeons are dps race / dodge heavy. Pretty saddening.

I'm glad I'm not the only one on Cox Communications having issues with this. Here's a traceroute from Phoenix, AZ.

I am on Cox Communications in the Irvine Area of California and the lag has been unbearable ever since the maintenance last week. Tonight was especially horrid. Massive lag everywhere I went, I couldn't do anything. Game was unplayable.

My lag has gotten so bad now it is absolutely impossible to play, which sucks because I love this game so much. One of the best games I've played. However if this lag keeps up I'll have no choice but to just drop the game as it isn't plausible to play with this insane lag.
Hopefully square enix will sort this out soon, I have been playing a couple other online games in the meantime with no issue so I know its not my end.

Maybe this maintenance will help fix the problem. We can only hope.

this is what happens when you use shitty servers in canada. they should just host in NA

[Tyberius]

Did the maintenance help with this in any way?

[Hatsworth]

It didn't feel like it helped me to much.

Cox AZ here, still lagging pretty fierce (if anything it's worse)

Progress just ground to a halt. I thought it was just my net connection so I tested a download yesterday and it's at full speed.

Ah well, we've got to wait until the maintanence is over to see if it fixes the problem. I hope so. JP is slippin and sliding around without any problems and it's really tempting to just hop over there.. and abandon all my legacy mates lmao.

The worst is when application saturates your network connection so badly that the ISP link starts sending out a reprofiling on the line because it thinks something broke. I've had a few games do that to me and ARR has done it twice in the past two days.
