Hello.
Since around December/January I have been having very high ping almost everyday consistently from around 6 PM to 8 PM.
In game other players literally teleport around the screen, freeze mid air and spells and skills cast with delay, boss attacks and telegraphs dont even appear or appear after already taken damage.
These spikes last 3-4 seconds and repeat every few seconds over and over.
Resoruce manager says 150-250 ms ping, while I usually sit between 30-55ms.
Tracert gives some request timed out lines.
I tried resetting router many times, even powering it off for 10 minutes.
Tried switching from Ethernet to Wifi, even using another computer, reinstalling ff14, updating all sorts of drivers to no avail.
I called my isp provider and they told me they cant find the issue, they even manually opened the connection ports to ff14 servers from my router, to no results.
I tried to play other online games and mmos at the same time as Ff14 is running and having these lag spikes, and those other games have zero lag, so that could confirm its a problem between isp and ff14 servers, not isp as a whole.
I dont know much more about connection stuff and I dont know what else to try, but here are some of my data for additional troubleshooting:
-ISP Provider: Orange (Spain)
-Platform: Steam
-Wired connection directly to router
-No other programs are used when this lag spike happens (Other than testing purposes I mentioned before, when the issue was confirmed without using programs)
-I tried other characters and other accounts, still happens
-1000 mbps Symmetrical Internet (This speed is unchanged when having lag)
-No other devices connected to this router or connection
-I have been with this ISP for a long time and none of this happened before winter, and the router is brand new.
