Australian Server Latency

Getting constant lag spikes that disconnect me every 5 minutes.

Have verified my network connection/latency so that leads me to believe its a POE server issue.

What happened this league, why the massive decrease in the quality of the servers? Have had intermittent issues for weeks with disconnects and lag.

In order for this post to follow the bug report format.

Specs:

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz 3.19 GHz
Installed RAM 16.0 GB
Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 (8 GB)
System Type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Game Settings:

All: High
Depth of Field - disabled.

Problem:
Latency spikes, disconnects, failure to join instance.

It has been really bad for me this morning. I am luck y to stay connected for more than 2 mins, multiple spikes for 10secs+

Everything was ok last night though. Weird how quickly things can go downhill so quick.

I am on fixed wireless, but it is all new hardware and it has been dialed in pretty good. I have not had this issue since I have moved, and lets be honest, this isn't the first time PoE has had connectivity issues.

Yeah definitely, saying that its never been as bad as this league (for me at least). Have been playing for the last 8 years.

Seems weird not to have the POE1 servers on point when this is almost like a POE1 redemption relaunch in the face of its neglect due to POE2.

I've lost several maps this morning, disconnected and the instance is gone. Really frustrating, I don't want to play if i'm just going to lose the investment in the map and have nothing to show for it.

First time i've experienced such instability on the Australian servers.

Yep disconnects / lost loot and maps every 10 minutes. Typically have <18ms to Aus server at all times. Disappointment after disappointment GGG, wth is going on over there?

Likewise. Last night things were running smoothly, this morning I've had numerous disconnections and failures to join instances.

At the very least it'd be nice if maps/scarabs/fragments could be refunded when it's a server failure - some of those things are expensive.
