Experiencing it as well, I hate the unable to gain access window continuously popping up, giving me an aneurysm.

[NA players - network error and high ping]

I bought ExitLag recently again since it was usually my go to if I can't play due the horrible routing for my ping but even it can't solve whatever the hell is wrong with their servers recently for some reason. Been unable to play the new expansion properly, ping is usually a stable 200-240ms for me and now it Averages and spikes to 900 - 1000+

[High ping on older living world episodes and 4k ping on empty maps sometimes?]

Hi there, been having insanely high ping issues for about a week now. Was thankfully smooth throughout Christmas till the last following week and now. The ping would surge to a 1k and then back to 400-600 and it gets relatively difficult to continue. The worst ones just jump to 4-6k ping and I am forced to just forsake the meta event taking place. I am on 1gbps fibre connection at the moment. 

 

Not sure if related even if the map isn't busy say I am going around nodes in metrica province to harvest resources I notice the ping has gotten significantly higher to 322 - 422 ping where it has always usually been a consisted 214 - 323 ping majority of my gameplay time, I mean I get less lag doing a dragons end meta with a full map and no strange latency issue vs going to a map like silverwastes where the ping spikes despite entering a ghost map.

 

I also noticed a high amount of lag playing older living world story episodes, I could complete them but it is quite annoying to go through them due to the lag, was trying to complete the Seasons of the Dragons achievement. Is there something possible going on with the servers over at Anet?

[Severe Lag Spikes & Disconnect - Error Code 7:11:3:202:101 - [Merged]]

Been getting severe lag spikes as well, I bought the expansion about 2 weeks ago, the first week was fine, very smooth experience but after that a steady increase of unplayable days. What is going on with the servers?!
