I tried the CyberGhost VPN and it was super laggy. I normally have a latency of 60ms, but with the VPN I was clocking in at 450-500ms. It was playable, but it still did not resolve my issues.
I've exhausted all possibilities and I'm doing a whipe, fresh OS install followed by a fresh EQ download and install. I am praying that works.
I am convinced that the DDoS attacks on p99's servers caused the admins to increase network security, but by doing so, they've caused problems for 10% of all users who had the game working with familiar regularity, then all of the sudden are in the same boat as all of us with the constant LD's. It's a catch 22.
