I'm getting dropped on my 5th hop, so I think that, regardless of where you are, if you have Verizon they are purposely dropping data through different routing points. All it seems to be affecting is FFXIV, so whether or not Verizon will change this for a single game is to be determined.

Level3 Montreal ormuco massive packet loss and then level3 massive ping spikes at 4.whatever which I go through twice.
