I am having the exact same problem and using the same ISP. Players teleporting and lag while in combat/crafting.

I'm hoping it has something to do with this and will be resolved soon.

I'm also using Singlag but I talked to some starhub users and M1 users and it seems to be fine for the most part. Hoping it gets resolved soon.

It happens at prime time i think because I can do dungeons and stuff during the day with no problem, and then as the day goes on it gets worse.

Trade during morning from Florida USA with Verizon Fios. Worse at night time. Called and got level 2 tech support, who blame everything on Alter.net, and say that it is on FFXIV.

When I explained that using a VPN like WTFAST resolves the issue, and Verizon is the one choosing to use alter.net, he told me Verizon has no control of this, and they will submit a ticket to FFXIV servers, as it is your fault....

I find it interesting that Verizon says they have no control over speed over any network outside of Verizon, but they blackmail Netflix for a better connection, and win.
