I first have to start WTFast, then I start FFXIV and log in. It takes about 2-3 mins before WTFast will start showing me any metrics on the performance.


I finally got a response. Perhaps I'll try a different VPN... Though this still does make it more manageable to play the game despite what readings I am getting.

A more accurate result would be the ping in the Montreal (Choose Best) single server connection. We are also adding new servers in Australia which should be live. Can you try Australia (Choose Best) and see if the new servers is better for you.
Damn, I knew it was too good to be true!
