Request for information: ISPs and P2P throttling

[Bontenmaru]

Any of you tried any Japan server? i have same problems like you on EU server but no lag at all on Titan (Japan serveR).
So is definitely a problem with EU/NA data center, there is something (router/server/switch/something) which drop packets for us... arround 5% loss during 30 mins of monitoring.

I've send a mtr log to support, i hope someone see it and identify those IPs which lose packets.

I've created a character on a japanese server too. At first it seemed to work fine but after 30 minutes i've got the first lag spike, then i've tried a Fate and it was a lag fest...

Name of ISP: BT - (Using Fibre Optic service called BT Infinity)
- Country of Residence: United Kingdom
- When does the problem occur: Started on the 4th September at 9pm BST (GMT+1)
- Reference number from your ISP: Have not been informed.

This is the first time this has happened to me. I have been playing with no issue since Phase 2 Beta.

[madolyn]

33 pages now and STILL NO RESPONSE. Day 5 for me of the game being unplayable. I was fine putting up with 1017 cause eventually i would get in...

but this has me on the verge of uninstall. I hate using my legacy as any kind of excuse....but many of us have stuck with this game since beta of 1.0 and would really appreciate a response.

[Ratm3000]

How about a Dev reply on this? This issue has been going on for several of days, it makes the game unplayable. As you lag just standing still let alone doing something. It is not our providers that are "throttling" it is a issue on SEs side. This is the online game that gives me problems where I am constantly booted and when I am online I get lag spikes by the minute.

After running the BASH script for about 20 minutes, the following is a quick summary of my results:

192.34.76.2 ... 2 Fails
199.91.189.234 ... 2 Fails
206.126.236.19 ... 2 Fails
199.91.189.74 ... 6 Fails
216.221.156.110 ... 1 Fail
89.149.185.41 ... 1 Fail

ISP:RCN
Location: Newton, MA

Seems like 188.81.187.74 is the most faulty IP.
