I't s impossible to play this game without playing at late night...

Same here, but who wants to play at 3am? This is getting beyond ridiculous.

From what I read, after they are finished focusing on upgrading the data centers, duty finder clusters, and adding more worlds, I think they are looking into adding an auto-logout function for players that are AFK after a certain amount of time.

Be persistent.

I cannot stress this enough. Just keep trying to log in, and within 5-10 minutes (maybe as many as 15 on peek times) you will make it in. I log in about twice a day, and always a 5-10 minute wait, and this is on Excalibur which is one of the (if not the) most populated servers. I often log in at 5:00pm and 9:00pm (which 9-12 is their "peek" time) with very little issue.

The most important thing that I have noticed is that you do NOT keep mashing the button, as sometimes it will not 1017 and actually put you into a queue. If you hit the button while in queue, it cancels the queue. Once in queue, with one exception, I have always gotten in when my turn came.

I just did the above (about 5 mins ago) to log in to Excalibur this afternoon. I had a little more trouble than before because the actual login servers were being hammered (it was that busy), but I still got in in about 15 mins.

Be persistent!
