Network freeze/ increasing latency until disconnection

Hello,

Since latest patch i have an issue where after i login the game my network altency just keep increasing eg 10k+ ms. Character is frozen but menus etc are clickable so it feels like a long constant lag and at the end it disconnected. Same problem also happens when i enter/exit maps.

i have tried below:

-reinstalling the game.
-trying different servers.
-disabling lootfilter etc

nothing fixes the problem. exit to login menu and relogging helps sometimes.

game is completely unplayable atm.

i have a gig internet without any other problems.

what country are you from?

nearly same problems with suddenly ping increases

The last two days at the same time... now, for maybe two weeks now

My POE2 play eveving is now over, unplayable

Can you write what country you are from? I am trying to find some common pattern

same like many players and from France

I know that people connecting to Frankfurt like me have the biggest problem. But knowing life and the fact that I have played more than one MMO game, my pings always got stuck in Germany, because there the internet connections tend to get clogged in the evenings and I do not mean GGG servers but the entire infrastructure of the internet connection. And without VPN, whether I want it or not, connecting to Western Europe from Poland, my route always goes through Germany, regardless of which gateway I choose. That is why I was a bit surprised that you have such problems in France, since you have about 600 km to each of the gateways, not counting Paris. And in different directions, so you always have an alternative to connecting to Milan, because you have it in the opposite direction and the connection goes through different hubs. In general, the faster people have internet connections, the worse for the entire infrastructure :)

I am from Turkiye.

VPN solved my problem. i dont know how but this comment from reddit helped me: "It depends on where you live in the world. If you live in Europe the issue is that there is a few real bad nodes on the way to the servers that poe has no control over. Try again with the vpn and do a further away server that could help."
