Dear EA-Mythic,

[Lythos-]

Please fix your Fert08 server again for it is giving me tremendous lag spikes even though i live 5 hours from DC. :<

151 ms 202 ms 207 ms fert08-eqx-iad.ea.com [159.153.224.238]


Seriously though it's been like this for 3 days. It'll be fine for 1-2min then lock up/con lost with over 200ms ping for 15-30sec then back to normal.


Anyone else reporting these kinds of lag spikes?

What provider is showing up prior to the EA sites?

If there's a "level3" hop in there, odds are, it's the offender. Their part of the net backbone is atrocious, and is typically the cause of about 80% of the complaints about connecting to the East Coast servers.
