Unlikely because the FF11 servers are all based in Japan.
I suggest Spectrum users to run a traceroute to help see where the packets may be dropping. You can then open a ticket with your ISP for them to investigate the traceroute and then hopefully try to optimize a better or more reliable peer.
In Windows search, type CMD, open the Command Prompt from the search result. Type 'tracert -d ffxi00.pol.com' and press enter. Highlight the results using right click, then left click once to copy into notepad, you can then paste the results using quotes on code on the forum.

It's interesting to see how different ISPs take different peers to reach the final destination.
