Recent PL Bug Fix

I was able to play and go ld only ever 30 - 45 mins after peak times. And virtually never went ld after 3 am backup..AND WOOT WOOT ON A FIX
 
I play on a wireless router and it occasionally will lose connectivity for a few seconds. Pre-fix this would cause my green % thing to slowly rise to 30-50, but then it would drop back to 0 and everything would be fine. I'd lose vent and other web access briefly as well. Now when this same thing happens EQ will just never recover. My other programs regain connectivity after a 5-15sec loss, but the EQ lag % just keeps rising to 100, then kicks me to char select, where I can log back in and resume play.

Its a less frequent issue than PL, but has the potential to be more problematic since it actually forces you out of game. If you are on a tank and go PL you can at least leave the char in game until the encounter is over, the the new LD problems actually force you out.

Hope this is helpful and these issues can get patched up! Getting rid of PL was pretty huge and if I really have to I can figure out a way to switch over to a direct connection rather than wireless as I'm guessing this would fix the issue.
 
Since you lose connections other than just SoD, I would check to see if environmental interference may be causing you grief. If there is a wireless phone (operating on 2.4GHz) or a microwave in the general area it can screw up your wireless connection. Also, if you live in a populated area and your neighbors are have a wireless router broadcasting on the same channel it can cause disturbances.

If your tanking and you get booted to char select your toon stays in the game for 2 mins or so or untill you try to log it back in. With PL the difference was if you were boxxing you could watch your tank on whatever else u were playing and still push Q lol. So just dont pueh enter on your tank till u know its safe
 
As of the 6/09 patch i havent ld'd!!! Was on for hours no need to refresh, no PL no LD, minor lag spikes (expected) but otherwise game has been running rather well for me, Thank you so much everyone who worked on this!!! Congrats for figuring it out in a rather short time!!! Have fun and see you in game!!
