Not joining match when match starts

So I’ve also been experiencing this since around season 4, I’ve followed a few threads and they were all older and basically anyone from ea stopped replying there, then saw the op here link to this and asked for everyone to try sang get on one post. 

i posted about this back in March maybe, one person commented they have the same issue and that was it

So I’ve deleted the game (multiple times), signed out of my acct, logged back in, downloaded the game, same thing every time. I’ve even went out and got a new PS4, not primarily due to this issue- but again, same problems.

 I’ve opened a ticket, talked to 3 reps- one of them has me adjust dns settings on my PS4 - primary set to 8.8.8.8 and secondary to 8.8.4.4 ; no dice

i found a thread mentioning having to adjust settings on the modem and open certain ports specifically for apex? Sounds weird it’s an issue now but whatever. Going to try tomorrow and will report back

 also issue for me is the same whether WiFi 47mbps download and 4 upload // then wired I’m at 380mbps download and about 7 download - same thing
