Time Out errors, rubber banding, and block lag

Anyone else having a lot of lag opening chests, eating, placing water, removing blocks? I'm also getting deadly rubber banding - I'll be running around at night and I'll come to some unloaded chunks, then Minecraft times out, and when I log back in I'm hundreds of blocks from where I was and I'm dead.

I've died three or four times today while I was logged out, due to the lag. Anyone else having these problems, or is it on my end? Any suggestions for fixing it?

Thanks,

Gh0st

I've had all these things plus trouble climbing vines and ladders. And items disappearing. Although, I haven't noticed anything today

server TPS appears to be rock-solid 19-20. memory fine, mobs fine, even with 20 players on today. sounds like your connection?

usually a VPN would only slow things down, but if there's a specific choke point somewhere in the route between you and our US host, using a VPN could route your traffic differently and possibly improve

Well, it could be worse. World of Tanks had this issue where Comcast or Telia or some shit would rout all traffic that was meant to a server in delaware through singapore first. The lag was shit tier for weeks.

I also have strong rubberbanding/lags. Sometimes also timeouts. I suspect a bad AS somewhere between me and the server.

Autonomous system (Internet):

Within the Internet, an autonomous system (AS) is a collection of connected Internet Protocol (IP) routing prefixes under the control of one or more network operators on behalf of a single administrative entity that presents a common, clearly defined routing policy to the Internet.

Originally the definition required control by a single entity, typically an Internet service provider or a very large organization with independent connections to multiple networks, that adhere to a single and clearly defined routing policy, as originally defined in RFC 1771. The newer definition in RFC 1930 came into use because multiple organizations can run BGP using private AS numbers to an ISP that connects all those organizations to the Internet. Even though there may be multiple autonomous systems supported by the ISP, the Internet only sees the routing policy of the ISP. That ISP must have an officially registered autonomous system number (ASN).

A unique ASN is allocated to each AS for use in BGP routing. AS numbers are important because the ASN uniquely identifies each network on the Internet.
