1 week into lagspikes and disconnections.

What is this?
It's legit unplayable for me for the last week do the devs even read this?

How is a Gauntlet fair when so many People in the Community cant even play the game like come on GGG.

Edit for the lulz, Orion connection is more stable than my poe connection lel

Yo still happening btw. One day to go gonna work tommorow right?, right?

you wouldnt start a priced event without fixing an issue thats spreading over the whole forum right?....yeah right...gonna work suuuuurelyyy im not going to rip every 5 seconds due to 6k ping spike because i dropped an alchemy orb...right?

Probably not gonna need to start a new character because i got dced while i wanted to enter the boss arena and that workload disconnected me, nah couldnt happen. Completly fair enviroment. suuuuuurely.

thats sarecasmn btw. im pissed.

And no, its not my connection i play every single other game without problems, like last epoch for example played for 6 hours and had constant 30 ping with w-lan (and no, i cant connect via lan, thats not a fix thats an excuse from your side face it.), but somehow it seems to me that you think that its user side...unlucky.

Picked up the starting sceptre and got booted of the server for that...gonna be a fun gauntlet, thanks very much GGG.

At this point GGG, you dont have to consider trying anymore ill just accept ur servers are shit and i cant compete in my favourit event because of it.

Consider a long time fan lost. Bye Mirage.

Make it a month, and still no change, nice.

Thanks :)

If you find the IP address of the instance server you most recently connected to and run an MTR test against it, it'll be possible for people to read the log from the test to understand what seems to be happening and why. Without this debugging information, it's impossible to say.

Network issues aren't easy to pinpoint and there are multiple factors and sides involved: your hardware and config, your system, your ISP, the game, the servers, etc.

Now it's a matter of narrowing it down which can be time consuming and annoying.

So here's what to try first. First, run a speed test to closest server. Are download and upload speeds correct and matching what you pay your ISP for? What about latency, is that low?

Next, check your router and gateway. Is that updated? Is every connected properly and not loose? Are you sharing your connection or using bandwidth for something else during gameplay when it lags? Is your wifi network open?

Then, prove that it's not your system. Use another machine or bring your machine closer to router. Using wifi? Get off wifi and run Ethernet or use powerline adapters (yes Wifi isn't great for gaming and we're in 2026). At least do it temporarily for troubleshooting reasons while you try to narrow down the problem. Maybe even bypass the router temporarily.

I understand server and game issues arise but to have it be a consistent thing for over a week or even a month makes me think there's something more to this problem.

Good luck.

Adding network issues as a tier 16 mod was huge big brain work by GGG

Started to experience this recently (EU servers).

By running WinMRT, I cannot conclude anything by myself (masking IP addresses, last is the instance server): https://pastebin.com/ReiA5KF5

First, it seems that it's a local problem (10.0.0.1 -> 135 worst) but I don't have lag spikes in any other game. Also, the last one (67.58.99.231 -> 253 worst) could mean that it's a fault on GGG's side. Not sure though.

why you masking the transition server ips? its obvious packet loss from cloudflare route behind. the servers lay on cloudflare free and routing is shit in europe with (in my case) deutsche telekom... it is extremely bad when on sunday or heavy user times or transition server upgrades.

not an isp or ggg(partial) problem but a cloudflare one

on your side you can nothing so BUT ggg can upgrade to cloudflare PRO on entry servers to get better routing and not using the shitty free plan from host...

i reported already... related "fun"fact: and also terrorists manipulate oversea cables but running on cl free plan is worse lol - just my2cents in networking rabbithole...
