Apex Legends Connection Issues (Console)
I've been having connection issues in Apex for a while now. Said issue is the red icon that indicates there's a problem of connection with the server. This happens constantly every game, every 30 seconds average (I timed it). Sometimes I also get the packet loss red icon, although this one rarely displays. The following are the solutions I've tried that have me scratching my head since after trying them I have no idea what is causing the issue.
I've always played with a wired connection so my console has the best speed my internet service can offer.
I supposedly play on the optimal server for me which shows an average of 30-33 kms ping and 0% packet loss. I've tried changing servers which have a slightly higher ping but the game feels almost the same. Sometimes it feels worse and sometimes better, but the issue is still happening constantly.
I also changed Internet provider and got a better service with higher speed (200 mbps download and 20 mbps upload), but the issue didn't get any better in the slightest.
I've also uninstalled the game and downloaded it again 3 times by now.
Additional clues: Some of my friends also have this issue, one of them even lives on the United States in the very same state as the server is in and my friend still has this issue so the problem is not proximity to the server related.
I have a friend on Playstation that also has this problem so it's also not console related.
I also have friends that don't have this issue or have it happening once a month and not every game, every 30 seconds like me.
Also this issue wasn't this bad when I started playing the game but seems to be getting worse with each season.
I've also tried playing on different times of the day and the issue still happens.
This is the only game that has this issue. No other game has this lag moments which frankly are ruining the game for me.
I can't stand this lags anymore, they are killing me because they show in the middle of a fight and freeze my screen for a few seconds just to have me dead when it's over or about to die. I'm lucky if I can finish a team fight within thirty seconds so I lag after the fight is over and not in the middle of it. It happens regardless if I'm playing battle royale or Arenas.
If anyone has any idea of what may be the cause of this issue or how I can solve this I would be really thankful. I really don't want to leave this game since I like it very much and have spent money on it over the years.
