SDE have placed the servers with a hosting company in the US called CD Networks.
They are using a IP address allocated by the Korean Network Authority KRNIC. These IP addresses are for use in the KRNIC network.
These IP addresses are classed as NON Portable IP Addresses and as such are not for use outside of Korea.
Not the US ARIN Network where they currently are.
The IP Addresses are Wrong and are causing the Lag and Crashing issues that a lot of people outside of the US are having trouble with and as of late with the changes to the US Networks routing is starting to cause problems in US as well.
I have reported this issue to SDE and CD Networks 1 month ago with SoubleGM being the SDE contact ....the result of which is after several support tickets and the provision of information to SDE.......is
"We are looking into this"
one week later no reply or fix or comment by any of sde in forums.
Due to the "we don't give a rats" adopted by SDE and CD Networks.
I have resorted to reporting their ISP, CD Networks, to KRNIC for Abuse of network IP Addresses.
This was also copied to ARIN (US Networks govening Body) and APNIC ( Asia Pacific Governing Body and the Owners of the IP space that is being abused), KRNIC operate under the umbrella of APNIC.
Until they fix this I would be so bold as to say that this product is not fit for the marketed use or purpose.
And...
208.80.251.170 = US Address 211.43.149.200 = Korean Address also 211.43.149.199 which is the other server
