Experiencing the exact opposite here. I just started seeing insane 999+ lag spikes last night during prime-time that made the game unplayable.

Maybe we traded places. Sorry. That was my experience since update25. I bitched about it and others just said it sucks to be you. I couldn't stand playing. Even doing writs was painful.
I ran tracert and figured out how my route was getting to Texas. I also manipulated it to try other routes with no improvement. I concluded it was at ZOS end with there load balancing and just waited for something to get it fixed. Then bam. Overnight with nothing really changed on my end it's below 100 just like before update 25.
Yesterday I logged on to do my writs and just like everyday since harrowstorm my ping was 600+
The only thing I did after that was run minion to update some add-ons and it was only 2. I downloaded Alyx and updated my Nvidia driver. The game was going to take 2 hrs to download so I went to bed.
This evening I log on and my ping is sub 100 avg. Highest I saw was 135. I did all 9 char writs and it was fine. It was obvious as soon as I logged in. No screen jitter or movement stutter. It ran smooth like I was used to.
Some people were saying they did not ever experience the lag like I did. So I don't know if something on the network, the new Nvidia driver or something at ESO that changed but today I am back to normal and I don't know why. I just hope it stays this way.
Anyone elses connection get better today?
I had the exact same issue during wednesday. Yesterday / Thursday was fine. Now the high latency is back.. my character isn't even properly animating it's animations. It's like my character get's stuck half-way- through wondering "what should I do next?" and then realize "Oh, I should hit, that's right" and continues the animation. Weaving takes more than twice as long.
Picking up mail takes twice as long. Handing things in the bank takes twice as long.. it's insane!
