High Latency and Connection issues since a week+

    Hello, getting very high ping connecting from Thailand since i got back from holidays Around April 12th. My normal latency past 10 years has hovered around 180-240, which is playable and fine. Right now it hovers between 240 and spikes all the way up to 800, irregularly. I often see 300s, 500s etc. Unplayable.

    -Currently playing on Mischief, and running up to 4 rigs but even if i run only 1 still high latency
    -My internet is otherwise fine with a 500-600 mbps speed test. Everything runs smooth but EQ
    -Not too many background processes on, graphics on low etc so not CPU related.
    -Connecting on other servers like Antonius Bayle does not help, the latency still high.

    What changed with the EQ Servers/Login Servers/Client the past week+ or so? Very unnatural behavior and it is persisting. Currently i am not hearing anything from friends connecting from the US in terms of problems, did they slow down the connection to the server from my geographic region?
