Texas Server Routing causing high ping?

Been informed Texas routing has been adjusted, haven't been on today to test will just edit this post a bit later.

Edit: Over a pretty long session I have had 0 130+ ping instance servers while using Texas. I'm hoping this is the end of this (for at least the time being) and next league starts off smooth.

It seems to be a specific instance ip server still throwing double what I'd hope to see on Texas. Same prefix (idk how ips are really described) as the previous high ping instance servers.

So, I'm not really sure if anything was really fixed at this point or if it was just alleviated for a weekend so tests showed up proper.

But, it seems like its back to DC.
I wish this wasnt the case but the issue is yet ongoing.

DC instances proving yet again to be better off than texas instances.

Restarting email chains with support but with the league coming out soon I imagine this is again the last of their worries.

Edit MTRs interval of five seconds etc.

For more fun: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/350619350 getting placed in california sub zones after logging in through texas, mapping through texas etc.

Texas instance servers are insanely unstable here recently. With technical support being gone until February at the earliest this is a pretty bad mark on the second week of a league.


I assume login servers are getting destroyed again?


Seems the shit has infected map servers now too.

Be cool if GGG looks into the complaints.
this last week has been awful for maps , constant lag spikes ( im on cali server) and its only in maps huge packet loss or something and its not on my end because isp and tests say other wise.
As posted under a different thread in the bug forum:

I've been encountering a similar problem since Tuesday.

The game simply "freezes" (ping graph still moves, but locks at the last value, skill effects keep looping) from time to time and I have to exit to login/character screen. Sometimes after I wait a minute or two the game "zooms" through what happened during that time and then I'm able to play for a while again. Also I'm randomly unable to load into the game from character selection.

The timing on this varies, sometimes I can play for 20 min without major issues, sometimes it immediately locks up after joining. Today, I have noticed similar issues when loading the PoE website. Also the problem hasn't happened with other games iirc, I was able to play League of Legends and Rocket League just fine.

I have checked my entire system including the router, its firmware and the wireless connection, reinstalled the game (Steam client) and talked to the tech support of my provider (Telekom).

After reading this thread I ran my own test. Went on a character and waited for the problem to occur. Afer 4 or 5 Blood Aqueduct instances, I found "the one". The game flatlined, I grabbed the IP from the log file and there we go: https://i.imgur.com/smc0Us4.png. The PL was @ roughly 10-11% on hop 3/4/5 at first and then dropped after a while.

Hopefully there's a solution as this is basically unplayable. Moving to other EU servers (Frankfurt->Milan/London) hasn't been helpful for me so far, might try others later.
