For the last few weeks I’ve been suffering the same lag as other customers have been experiencing (along with disconnects etc.) during peak times. I understand this is some issue with ISPs and Anet is doing something about it…
The past few days I’ve also been suffering REALLY slow asset loading as well. Not just long loading into zones (which is the case as well) but also various assets while playing. For example, I just stood in front of the LA Asura gate in Lornar’s and it took about 5 minutes for the actual gate graphic to appear. Other assets are the same.
Anyone having anything similar? I’ve tried completely reinstalling but no change.
I was fine until the EoTM patch as well, never had a disconnect issue (that wasn’t the dog pulling the router out at the wall). Now I’m lucky to manage 15mins online, and as soon as there’s any other players nearby – eg. events, WvW, sPvP – I get ability latency which suddenly strikes then eventually a disconnect as my character runs impotently into walls :-(

Level3 is slowing you down, call your ISP and get them to test their feed from Level3 for connectivity.
Thanks for your reply and forgive my ignorance, but what does this mean I need to do? I only ask because I’m likely to be fobbed off by some tech support person telling me to reset my router if I don’t have something specific to say… ;-)
You call your ISP, you explain that you see physical evidence that your ISP is having latency issues with Level3, at IP address 4.69.133.210, and you formally request your ISP to investigate the issue.
This process is called Head to Head testing. Since your ISP has a direct Feed with Level3, they are able to do with with in their SLA service contract.
If the Tech that answers the phone is clueless about the head to head testing, escalate up to Tier3 (speak to managers if you need to). And when you get to a tech that understands what you are requesting, give them the TraceRT you posted here in the Forums.
Thank you. I owe you one internet :-)

I’ve been making a series of videos about games. They’re not really news or reviews; more like biased opinion pieces. A bit like the Daily Mail but less xenophobic.
Latest is Guild Wars 2 – Enjoy :-)
