Anyone else got problems

Ok before I ask the question, please, please don't answer if it is to slate NC, that is not why I'm posting and I don't want to get my post locked or deleted before I have an answer.

My question is simple.

Has anyone else recently suffered from a lot more lag and DC issues than normal?

If so where are you based in the world.

The only reason I am asking - which is why I asked not to have peeps flame NC if you consider it a problem with the game - is that I am currently trying to establish if it is a server problem whilst PTS is running and C5 is implemented (which I can accept and deal with) or if it is my ISP.

I had a lot of problems with my ISP about 4 months ago and it all seemed to stabalise when I complained. Now it is happening again and I would prefer to be sure it is them before either complaining again (I hate having to make those phonecalls) or starting to change my provider.

I'm asking about areas because my b/f is adament it's our ISP and that people who have same problems are using the same ISP. I however think it's just a server issue as mentioned and he needs to be patient.

Thanks for any help - mods please understand I am not being negative about the game as stated clearly in my post.

been getting constant dc's and lag lately
every now and again i like to blame my isp, but when i get dcced and can open a few thousand web pages but not lineage2.com i start to wonder :P

I am not having issues. I play on Erica and I'm located in the US in Northern California. I do not have issues on the PTS either.

No issues over in the UK for me. One or two D/C's every few weeks but thats normal...i hope =P. Using BT (British Telecom) ISP.

Things have gotten a bit laggier (word? lol) since the PTS started up, but thats expected with them running a tested, constantly changing server.
