Thanks to the teams working on this problem..

Looks like most of the problem has been fixed from the maintenance work done, but im still not getting the same quality connection to GW that i was getting before the 29th, right now i average around 200ms playing ab, now this is fine for ab/pve GW is very playable, but im worrying about gvg, where infuse is a key skill and requires a good ping to be semi accurate, so will still have to test for gvg.

This is a BS, they dont fix anything im just tired of this...i guess i dont have this problem in wow or something ffs Anet really sucks!!!! And i dont even care if is they say that is "outside our direct control" maybe they want users to fix this...jeezzz

^so if there is a food shortage in your supermarket you want it to create food.

please think before bashing people. wow is maybe not redirecting you to a server located in frankfurt, and this is why you have no problems.

ho btw I'm running out of beer, why didn't you buy any? I want my beer!! "jeezzz"

Mod Edit: Removed quotation of struck post

Aparently you have watched my ping over the whole day to know that what i said is BS.

*shrugs*

And i never said anywhere they fixed anything. Just said that the lag started later today

addendum 2 -- 2 July 10:30 PM Pacific (-7 GMT): Our network team reports that today's scheduled maintenance went as planned and so far, all looks well. There are some configuration and compatibility matters that are now full aligned, and the stability for about the last hour has been solid. The logs they were getting from earlier errors are not reoccurring, which is a positive sign that the maintenance fixed the issues.

If any European player has comments or experience reports since the maintenance was complete, I'd be delighted to pass them along to the network team. Thank you again for your patience while we worked to resolve this issue. --Gaile 05:30, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Doesn't seem to have had any effect on my connection as info Gaile - Im still getting massive lag spikes which make trying to do anything constructive completely impossible.
Thats going through the 206.127.x.x server.

LazySod · Jul 04, 2007, 09:02 AM // 09:02

It seems to be a lot better for me now. Was able to play without noticeable lag between 18:45 GMT and 21:00 GMT yesterday evening (July 3rd), and also this morning between 05:30 GMT and 06:30 GMT. No idea what servers I was on, didn't check.

sp3ct3r · Jul 04, 2007, 09:45 AM // 09:45

Amazingly i started lagging yesterday... Lots of ppl from my guild had lag issues for some time now...But although i share the same ISP as some of them, i didnt use to have the same kind of lag they do. Yesterday i was playing fine at the afternoon (GMT+1 here) but when the time for nightly gvg came (AT), I was lagging like crazy. At the guild hall, all seemed fine, but as soon i entered random arenas, gvg, AB, my ping skyrocketed to a whooping 1.6k.. Funny thing is that this started for me yesterday, AFTER anet suposedly fixed the lag issues...

Talking to plaync support about it last time they showed me I had almost 100% packet loss during the spikes which is true since I got screenshots of all 8 of my skills pinging as if they are going off while I'm frozen.

So, bad routing. Last time I had to change my ISP to get rid of it. This time it's up to anet or I'm not buying eotn or gw2.

If u use adequate tools u will see that u are also routed via frankfurt. most likely cause the servers are located nearby. All European districts go (most likely) via Frankfurt as indicated by tracert. What goes wrong over there I dont know, might by a local HUB there, the host of ANets servers or the servers of ANet itself.

BTW the problem is solved here which is very nice, it was an absolute nightmare this weekend

makosi · Jul 04, 2007, 02:32 PM // 14:32

It's really pissing me off now. 5 Days of constant lag while in Euro districts and no mention of a resolution. I know it isnt in Anet's direct control but it's still their responsibility to provide and maintain a reasonable service.

If this routing problem in Frankfurt can't be fixed, which it obviously can't, then why not reconsider business partners? Or are these the cheapest available?

Cirian · Jul 04, 2007, 02:44 PM // 14:44

I'm in the UK. I've been lagging badly in the Euro districts these last few days too, to the point where it's unplayable. Thankfully the Int districts have been ok enough. I'm glad there's alternatives just in case!

Pyrea · Jul 04, 2007, 03:02 PM // 15:02

Ok, so after an unplayable weekend of lag, Monday and Tuesday were fine no problems, back to normal, but now the lag has returned to enact vengeance on those it deems unworthy...

Metanoia · Jul 04, 2007, 03:35 PM // 15:35

^ Ditto...-ish

I did a tracert (start>run>"cmd">tracert <gw server ip>) and my connection also runs through germany on it's merry way to the ANet server. Hurray for me.

Kurald Galain · Jul 04, 2007, 03:46 PM // 15:46

Lag went from bearable to unplayable again during the past couple of hours.

Tabitha Gladrielle · Jul 04, 2007, 04:30 PM // 16:30

I'm still lagging like I was since last thursday :-(

Average ping not 13000 ms anymore but 900 ms *sigh* Feels like I'm sitting on the moon and play from there...

(Edit: I'm from Germany)

Hyaon · Jul 04, 2007, 05:41 PM // 17:41

Was great all today, 31 ping then 20 minutes ago EVEN worse than what I had during the few days before then, red constantly

Random Drifter · Jul 04, 2007, 05:43 PM // 17:43

OMG Dont tell me it's resolved

. It's only gotten worse so far for me. Im from holland, and have been getting bad spikes since last thursday. So that's 6 Fing days now! Before thursday always average ping of 20-40. And now I dont get below 2k average ping

. Screw this, no way im buying GWEN and GW2 if it continues like this!
