I am in Tx as well. I will either see a blank server log in, or it will just time out

I may get a wireshark capture, but honestly, It's downstream from my ISP so I don't know who to contact. I would assume other people are seeing similar latency and not just on p99, but their normal internet may be slow.
As well, there is no way for us users to change how the traffic is routed. It'
s all determined by the ISP's lightower.net is part of Crown Castle fiber networks. Essentially, we're at the mercy of their router(s) and I've worked with enough networking guys to know that before they fix the issue, they will deny the issue is their network for s few hours to possibly a day before they actually look at it and find it was indeed their network.
There's a haiku:
It's not DNS

There's no way it's DNS

It was DNS.

Default VPN

I used openvpn to try to get it to route through a different source and it didn't work. Same problem.

Here's the latest traceroute I did to eqemulator.net

71.149.76.41 is an IP in Redmond WA
12.81.225.241 is an IP in Morristown NJ. The hop between those two looks to be like the problem.

The lightower IP's seem to be in Massachusetts. As a test, I am tethering my laptop to my phone. I'll try to connect. and report back here.

Me too. I was able to login while tethered but my signal is awful where I am. Can't play on that. I imagine this can't be a p99 specific thing.

I am also having the same issue. Also located in TX. Is there any reasonable solution to getting onto the game?
