In short, the after Ascension lag is back in full force.
Im on a 100mbit cable connection. No wireless connection in between.
The problem is that it's not always easy to distinguish between client lag, game server lag and connection latency because the affect on gameplay is the same - you click your mouse and nothing happens for a few seconds. Even if you have a fast machine and can positively rule out client lag, you can't rule out latency in your internet connection without running some ping tests. A fast connection to your ISP is only the first hop among many to CCP's servers (it's also the only one that you have any control over).
Running a traceroute from the East Coast of the US, it currently takes me about 100 m/s to reach CCP - but only 10 m/s to get to my ISP. Which means 90% of my latency has nothing to do with my personal connection speed. A bottleneck at any of the relay routers between here and there could send my latency plummeting no matter how fast my personal connection is.
CCP doesn't allow pinging the game server directly, but you can ping their admin server or another nearby address (such as a nearby commercial datacenter at 85.13.193.200) to get a general idea. Just go to your command line and type "ping eveonline.com". You can also download one of the many traceroute programs from Sourceforge to check the connection speed at each point in the chain.
Don't simply assume that all issues are game server lag. Given that many people don't have any issues at all, this sounds like a latency problem. |

When I have lag it is because Steam decides to update something in the background. |

I get lag occasionally when opening my industry tab.
I think having two kids each streaming Netflix while their 600 iPhone apps are updating might have something to do with it.

There are 86,400 seconds in a day. You just saved one of them by typing 'u' instead of 'you'.-á Congratulations, dumbass!
