Sorry but this doesn't help me in any way, I was not having any problems whatsoever connecting to the game with my current setup before downloading the final shape. Just like everyone else he was having problems connecting after they downloaded the final shape and it was a big issue at the launch of the expansion but now everybody else seems to be able to connect just fine while I'm still experiencing the connection problem which is not on the players end, it was a bug in the game that seems to be fixed for the majority of the people but not all. I play about five other online games and have no problem whatsoever with my internet setup getting on them, Destiny is the only one giving me problems and it only started whenever I downloaded the final shape.
