I also have had extremely poor connectivity since the update and put it down to ANETs poor server support. Makes doing spvp or even normal pve stressful and disappointing to say the least. My ping used to be between 40-80, now it can go up to 300+! my ISP has changed nothing so I know it is ANETs fault, but they will do nothing as it would cost them to improve server side when they don’t take a subscription fee like WoW or so on.
