[Extremely laggy since Aug 23 Update]

I have been lagging slightly during this time frame too and let's hope it's just a temporary thing. It is not as troublesome to me, but I am restricted to only doing dailies. I had to give up on meta, but it's OK, I do have other games to play in the meantime. Hope my lagging days gets solved soon tho.

This is some good insight. I had this thought myself too, because I remembered after I patch GW2 the Windows update prompted me for a restart and I did. Quite possible Windows changed some system structure and somehow it blocked GW2 from properly launching.

Same here, waiting for a fix

I honestly have been affected by this as well, but I've been looking at the wrong place as I approached Anet and my ISP, with both side's support checking and has given me the same answer: "Our end has no issue", so this makes sense, as Amazon servers are between Anet and my ISP and they are the one dropping out. Anet needs to address this, I recently came back and wanted to teach raids again but with this, I am not able to do so and has come across as fraudulent from the trainees in my guild. I am not happy.
