FPS stutter and Server instability have been atrocious since yesterday.

Had some weird crap happen the entirety of yesterday where after 10 minutes of playing my ping shot up 5o (to 80) and woud have periodic spikes of up to 120, 180, or somewhere in the 200's for a second or two...nothing sucks more than having an Instant spell with a cooldown not go off when you click because the server shat the bed, so now you're running headlong into a pack of mobs kamikaze style, sans bomb to detonate ...
I had a lot of issues yesterday (Christmas) and today.
I am having the same issues; life sucks.
Was really enjoying the rework and new league but this is ruining it.
I can say for sure that the servers in the Singapore gateway are badly affected as well. I have faced the same issues since the beginning of the league. Getting a bit frustrated.
Today (Jan. 7, 2018 at 415pm EST) playing on the DC realm is bad. More Networklayer packet loss I suspect. Running WinMTR tests to WDC:



Yep. The 2 nodes that always give me problems coming in from south Florida (atl01.networklayer.com and wdc02.networklayer.com) are showing packet loss problems again.

When there is stuttering and DCing the only consistency is that it is always the same 2 Networklayer nodes. My link is perfect through all of Comcast nodes until the data is handed off to Networklayer. So the acquisition of Networklayer by IBM Cloud has done nothing to address and fix their fiber communication problems. SIGH!!!

Hey GGG... can't you get any better service from IBM Cloud? Networklayer sucks!  :(

Necessity may be the mother of invention, but poor QoP in PoE is the father of frustration.
