I'm on sonic gig fiber which is riding on at&t fiber in my area. Same problem. changing DNS to google's for both ipv4 and ipv6 did nothing. Tethering on my phone always works. VPN works. I tested my up and down speeds on my eq machine and its 100 down and 150 up. These numbers are lower than normal for my connection which is around 350 down and 350 up over wifi. This suggests to me that this issue is coinciding with throttling done by at&t during prime time. That being said no other service encounters any issues. project1999.com has the same issues (i'm writing this tethered to my phone) right now.
I am worried that while using VPN multiple accounts could collide with each other and get us banned. VPNs have a limited number of "exit IPs" and it's quite plausible that multiple of us trying to circumvent this problem will appear to p99 folks as if we're playing on the same IP. Can we please get at least a comment from a mod on this?
I basically cant play from 5pm PST to around 11pm PST every day.
