Apex: staggering lag problem

@Krilleex If your movement is smooth and other players aren't. that's very indicative of a network or server issue. If it were an issue with local performance, you would not appear to run smoothly. If you can grab a clip of this happening that should be more helpful for figuring out what's going on.
The detail about the lobby is certainly interesting though, can you grab a clip of this happening too? I know in some cases network conditions can affect the lobby but I'd like to know a bit more to be sure.
As for the network, ping and network speed are less of an issue in this case than potential packet loss, but again I'd like more info.
I uploaded a clip to Youtube if you want to take a look.
As you can see the lag continues in the lobby and in the pre-match lobby.
My own movement is usually smoother than this but the FPS dropped because I was recording with fraps. It usually runs with 144fps.
As you can see there are no packet losses.

Thank you for the video. Unfortunately the ping data to Google doesn't really discount the possibility of a network/server issue.
From the video it looks like a network/server sync issue, can I check if you've tried the network steps mentioned previously?
I don't want to discount a strange local performance issue too, can you try restarting with a Clean Boot then play again and see if anything changes.
