I connect to the Swedish server (I live in Sweden).

Ahhh... I see. From London here so wondering if I should connect to the London servers or the one close to the Data Center (though I don't know where it is lol)

I used Pingzapper and connected to a server in LA. Had pretty low ping and seems to be working alright

There are a lot of people that have been having the same problem since Monday. You're not alone, but SE still haven't got back to us, so I suggest;

1. Send a bug report into SE in-game.
2. Make a ticket in-game.
3. Post in these topics and bring more attention to this matter; here, here and here.
4. Like posts and show they're not the only ones having this problem.

This is undeniably a problem with SE and needs addressing as the game is unplayable in these conditions.

I connected to the London one.The servers themselves are in Montreal.Like Claine, I hope this is all fixed before the 30 day trial is up.I'm not paying for the subs AND the WTFast.

Thank you for the response. That is something I was considering could be the issue. Is there anything I could do to test or remedy the issue? Would my router cause this?

Run some tracert or pathpings to the server your client is using. If you see highly erratic response times (or timeouts noted with a *), copy/paste the results into a support ticket with your ISP from their web portal. Might be good to open a ticket with SE as well, forwarding the same details (note posting it here is not requesting support from SE.. this is user to user support--use SE's support portal and open a proper ticket). These kinds of reports provide them with details on your specific route, as well as hints as to where to look for problems.

And for the love of Pete... people, please top hammering the old eidos.com web server. 184.107.107.176 is NOT what your client is using for the game, and is not the one you need to test against. Get the proper IP by running netstat in a cmd prompt or open resmon from your run/search line after you've logged fully into the game and get the IP being used by ffxiv.exe--the Canada servers start with 199 and the JP ones start with 124.

Guys I just found this thread on the Sky forums, don't know if it's worth any of you with access to your Sky ID posting in there and maybe linking back to the SE forum posts like this one to try and raise some more awareness of the issue and alert Sky to just how many of us are affected? (If they even bother looking at their forum, but it's better than nothing I suppose).
