PoE is unplayable from Greece and Italy since it was released due to lag and disconnects.

In the evening is unplayable. I lost a huge amount of xp.
And this only after realease.
Maybe the problem depends from steam.

Anyway this is my tracert.

Edit: It seems the problems have ended, i've managed to kill Vaal with little problems of lag during the dungeon and the boss fight.

And yet another crash on the Dom fight. I can't even get into Cruel because of this fight..

I always had the standard poe desync, but after release there are some times on the day (I dont know why) I have the same ping as I always do, but it gets spiky and I can barely play, the desync gets out of control and the mobs take like half a second to respond to anything. (just in case I get the "ITS YOUR ISP" response, I play every other Arpg online and poe is the only one this bad on syncing side)
I hope that with all the new players and release effect slowing down, this will stop; I'd hope for some fix from GGG but after 1 YEAR of "we are working on it" I don't trust them any more in that regard

Why is a trace route required when its obviously the patch or the servers. I uninstalled the POE client and Installed the Steam version. I have never ever had this many disconnects period.
This is not a individual issue, this is a server or patch issue. Your servers probably cannot take the increase load of connections. since every time someone dc's including myself , we have a Queue line to connect to the game.

Italy here too, same problem since fianl release, never had those issues before.

i think its really time to make it right and NOT use tcp as your protocal of choice GGG. its proven fact that hardly any1 got that working, simply due to the fact tcp works. itll never be fixed using tcp, it simply cant...i know thatll take ALOT of work, but well - better now than later right?!

just a little read:
