Please actually DO something finally so that servers are stable. I mean come on, there are not thousands of players playing at any given time, what kind of servers you have that they disconnect, lag, disconnect, lag on and on?? I would expect much more stability in XXI century. It's unnacceptable to be disconnected frequently in expeditions only to get back to Yawning Portal, losing one ME (not that expeditions are worth it anyways, poor drop honestly), not good to be disconnected in the middle of dungeon especially when playing tank or healer, random rubberbanding making firing skills impossible, come on, any tech team out there? This looks like some private home small server bought for fun, definitely not fun for playing -_-

Reboot your computer.
Reboot your router.
A lot of times those two things will clear up a lot of lag issues.
Run a tracert to the patch server and see if you're hanging up anywhere between home and the game servers. Usually you'll find a problem with cogent.
You think your end is good. Cryptic thinks its end is good.
There is nothing both side can do with whatever in between.
greywynd's suggestion is to check if there is some issue in between.
I personally do not have any disconnect for months. The only lag/rubberband that happened in months was in Winter Festival area when the instance was filled with people.
My issue appears to be with Akamai and mailout.perfectworld.com:

Looks like it is on Cryptic's end, or am I missing something?
The suggested server to do tracert is patchserver.crypticstudios.com.

Note that the IP address subnet is totally different. I don't know where you went to.
Mine goes to crypticstudios.com. 208.95.184.
Yours went to perfectworld.com. 66.151.133.
Using DNS reverse lookup, 66.151.133.70 cannot be found.
208.95.184.200 yields patchserver.crypticstudios.com as expected.

Guess it was old data (and PWI)

don't know what's going on, tried two different computers.
I switched to the US proxy in the options dropdown and that seems to have worked.
