Lag, SNR, and DC is worse than before!

in Windows and General: PC, Network, and Other Technical Issues
Trying to do the FE for this week. Currently stuck in ground combat with frequent SERVER NOT RESPONDING in excess of 2 minutes at times, dying repeatedly with no chance of preventing it (the NPCs have full capability but I don't, everything stalls then goes "Keystone Cops" to catch up with me standing there and taking damage but unable to act), totally unplayable. This is WORSE than it was before the "network upgrades". Whatever you did, you didn't fix it at all.

This is after the extended maintenance yesterday, after computer reboot, after router/modem reset.

Pings are...well, see for yourself.

I'm not going through the Cogent network, apparently, if you're still using it, but not exactly the same non-Cogent network as the last time I saw a change with the network "upgrades". I'm not saying you should use Cogent, not at all (COGENT SUCKS), but someone has to have a decent network to use!

Yesterday, post-maintenance, was nothing but SERVER NOT RESPONDING, DCs, lots of lag, and pure frustration.

Come on people! Please?!

    THREE attempts to log in..something's not right.
    Murphy's laws:
    1- Murphy’s Law tells us that anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
    2- And anything that does go wrong will get progressively worse.
    3- And if you survive the first two laws it’s time to panic.

    i am using a hybrid router and tracer/pingtests don't work with those (or i haven't found a way).

    But since the last Patch the lag and disconnects got worse.

    I was hoping for the best ( after a 10hr patch) but i get disconnected several times per hour, i don't see visuals of my weapons, shields, abilities..., my Boff and Captain skills don't react or they ract with some second long delay (if i'm not dead by then), weapons are not firing, many times i am just stuck (esp. annoying in CCA when i can't move, can't even turn to get out of the Range of the entity) and then i have a lot of SnRs, several per minute. from 3-5 seconds to 30, 60 or even 120+ seconds

    Actually all cryptic games are a bit laggy. Not like STO, but they are lol. If you want to play something without lag, you should try something else. But lag is not always due to the game itself, unless you are pretty sure that there is no problem in your end.
