Usually I get under 30ms ping and 0% PL.

@WeeWillyWinki3 Can you try going through the following with the change in ping and PL?
- Basic and Advanced Connection Steps

If you continue to see these issues would you be able to share a UOTrace (Requires PC)?
Thanks for your response.
I do not have access to a Pc, but is it not common knowledge that DNS servers have little to no effect on gaming latency?
Whatever upstreams DNS I am using now, with the increased lag/ping issues, are the very same DNS that were used in Season 7, where there were much fewer issues.
