Hello,
I've noticed over the past two weeks I've had a sudden but consistent doubling of my ping in FFXIV up to around 200ms (which makes hitting 5 cast Delirium and Blood Weapon windows impossible if double weaving... which is kind of important for a DRK rotation... which makes me a sad panda.) I don't have any latency issues when accessing any other games, only Final Fantasy 14, which is why I come to this forum today, to find out if there is any guidance I can receive on trying to fix this situation. I've contacted my ISP to see if there is anything weird going on, and they haven't found anything out of the ordinary. I am hardwired directly into the modem, the amount of devices connected to my modem has not gone up, and nothing else has changed that I am aware of, that could cause this issue... Now, normally I would chalk this up to just potential weirdness on my side, or various other networking issues, but several other members of my Static have also claimed to be experiencing a similar jump in their latency in the past two or three weeks.
Below is the tracert to the NA data center from my location, unfortunately I was unable to find out any information that would help pinpoint the jumps and their location (and if I was going well out of my way for some reason, particularly the one that is clearly much different than the others). As I live in the middle of the US, the fact that I'm getting slower tracert times than similar queries run from NYC (80) and even Berlin (170) is a little baffling.
Any help or further guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for your time!
