My Old Blog about things that could and should have been added when I wrote it. Not sure what I want to do with it now. I'll just keep it available now that most of it is outdated.
As I understand it Cogent, the server company, is in the Boston area. Most of the east coast has been getting slammed by winter storms on and off. This might be causing some issues with downed lines and routing to the servers.
A simple TraceRt or Nettest can give you some ideas where the problem might lie: at Cogent or somewhere in between. People might also think about changing their Proxy in Options to see if that has any effect.
STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

its not just the USA that is getting hit by Cogent. im in the UK and last week cogent was the problem that kept me from getting a solid connection. however since complaining about it, there has been no instability since.
T6 Miranda Hero Ship FTW. Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
There is definetly something going on with the servers the last week or so. I've been getting alot of random disconnects/lag spikes. It only occurs with STO. Very annoying!
I am having the same server issues here in Ohio. I can only play during the day then I get lag and numerous disconnects making the game unplayable. I didn't have this type of problem before but the past couple of months have been frustrating. I have tried all the tricks on my end to try and improve playability and nothing works. I love this game but damn...

The servers are always jumpy late at night (EST wise)
