Latency issues on Canada East Realm

I noticed something similar a couple weeks into the league. Not sure if the change was since the start of this league or some time into it, but I'm consistently at 60-70ms latency or more on Canada East now where I would usually be at 15-20 last I checked some time in Settlers.

Not sure what happened, but its horrible, and now I play on Washington at around 30-35ms (or even Texas at 50ms is faster than Canada for me).

Considering I'm close to Toronto, there is definitely something weird going on.

I read something about network attacks on GGG early league around the time I noticed the latency and switched over... I thought maybe it was some extra layer of protection GGG added temporarily causing it, but I dont know if thats even a thing, I just couldnt think of any other reason at the time.

Anyway I've been checking every few days and it's still not fixed so I thought I'd check forums to see if there was any info.

Plz fix GGG, the enjoyment factor is defintiely lowered having to play like this.
The total radio silence from GGG is pretty frustrating.

If there's an issue they are working on, just let us know.

If they've had to relocate the Canada East realm out to the West Coast, then tell us and rename the realm accordingly.

Any communication from GGG would be really appreciated.
*Bump*

GGG, Please respond on this, it's pretty frustrating.

Have you moved the servers to a different part of the country?
Is your host having routing issues?
Why does the login page show a ping of around 39 but it's actually 90+ when I get into the game?

Give us something...
Thank you.
I was thinking my latency issues were on my end but I'm (in the Montreal area) getting consistently lower ping from Washington and even Texas this league.

When selecting the realm, it shows Canada at ~30ms but when actually in game (even in hideout) its 70ms at least with spikes up to 100.

I experienced the same issues playing PoE2 a month or so ago, so it really seems like an issue with this particular server location.
