What's with the server lag late at night?

I live in the central area of the US and got 68mbps up and 9mbps down on speedtest.net but when I log into Neverwinter I lag and rubberband everywhere left and right.

    Speed means nothing. you could easily play at 1mbit connection.
    Do a pingtest rather at pingtest.net - to soem further location where servers are (i assuem soemwhere on NA).

    I get horrible rubberbanding and disconnects often even though my ping- and speed-test ratings are fine. Extremely frustrating when you're in a dungeon and get booted back to the beginning, let alone disconnected at all.

    You -> Internet route -> PW

    Usually, you either have a bad routing to PW, which would be a provider related problem

    OR

    the internet connection of the server farm of PW is just maxed out

    OR

    the server NW runs on are too slow to work through all the data of the players at peak times.

    I can browse through their forums and main site just fine with no lag at all so that takes care of bad routing to PW however it feels like their game servers are in China with all the lag in-game
