canadian poe server problem

Videotron user here (from Quebec), I've been having the issue as well. I played 5-6 hours ago and everything was OK, but now I'm experiencing the exact same issue a lot of people are describing.

Edmonton, Alberta reporting in, can confirm, system is cocked. Shaw provider if it helps, doubt it matters much they're all terrible

Live in the boonies on Vancouver island. Same issue.

unfortunetly for us its between shaw and telus.

and shaw is by far better and less scammy.

Vancouver here, unplayable. Good for a few minutes then latency goes out of control :( scared to play, don't want to lose my beyond character.

canada here too and same problem lol

Living near vancouver, BC, Canada. also lagging like crazy. sometimes i can go 5 minutes with it being fine. Then booom, total disconnection for almost 10 seconds. super scary. i haven't been logging in for fear of loosing my character. i was hoping it was due to the amount of people playing and would die out later in the day but it seems that not the case.

Anyone call Shaw to find out what's up? Maybe they can do a fix on their end to make all of us happy.

"the boonies" of Vancouver Island here, too. On Shaw.

I've been logging in about once an hour, and this has been going on for at least 4 hours already.

Things are fine when they're fine; randomly there will be 10-30 seconds of lag. It's not related to doing any specific thing; in combat or not. I've been in town, moving a gem from an equipped item, into my inventory, and it was at least twenty seconds before the gem actually moved. Don't even get me started on trying to move things in the stash!

When it's fine, things will frequently go for one or two minutes without any lag at all.

I'm glad I'm not playing too super serious here, because there's no way I'm playing my beyond character like this. I have a lot of free time tonight >:(

Oh, also: everything else I do on the internet is fine. I can play other games and watch videos with no lag; it's just this game that's lagging.

Considering Shaw isn't the only ISP with the issue im going to go with no they cant wave a magic wand. The problem is likely the servers themselves or one of the other hops before the servers after Shaw's network. I have run traces to several other IPs over the US and am not experiencing any other issues.
