From what you posted, I am unsure if you have done the ping test recently before/during/after trying to connect to FFXIV, this is all I am trying to confirm.
Ran a ping test to Google with the -t flag from the moment I clicked 'Play' on the Launcher through the time I got kicked off of the game. No fluctuations. Personally, I'd be interested in seeing the metrics of the NA/EU server's connections, I'm sure it'd be both fascinating and answer a lot of questions.
