Ever since sometime monday morning/afternoon, I can no longer play FFXIV without experiencing this stupid 90002 error every 5-10 minutes. As far I understand, the 90002 error means that the disconnection is due to the client dropping the connection.
- I've installed Wireshark, Nmap, and Pingplotter, and according to all the results, I can ping and traceroute the server perfectly fine.
- I've restarted my router, power cycled it, I've even unplugged it for 1 hour periods and have had its IP address reset three times.
- I've made sure to forward the ports required (52926-55551 I believe), though I've played the game perfectly fine for the past year and half without ever having to do this.
- I even spent $10 on a month of WTFast thinking it might be an issue with how my connection is being routed. I still get disconnected regardless of what WTFast server I'm connecting to (I've tried directly to the Montreal servers, I've also tried chaining the Tampa server to the Montreal one to no avail)
I'm honestly at my wits end and don't understand why this stupid error came out of nowhere when I've had next to zero lag for the past two weeks. And if I ever had trouble connecting to the servers, it was never this bad and usually went away after a few weeks.
I didn't save any previous tracert logs, but here is what mine looks like right now:

During that time, I experienced constant severe lag spikes and only one 90002 error.
If anyone can help me, I'd appreciate it.
