Closing Apex Legends kills PCIe Wi-Fi Adapter

When I close Apex Legends, my PCIe Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Adapter crashes for a short while. 

This always happens  ~7 seconds after my PC unloaded the 'EasyAntiCheat_EOSSys' File System Filter and only ever with Apex Legends. Apparently it also crashes my Wi-Fi until I restart my PC (got ethernet though).


I use the Asus PCE-BE6500 with the only driver (Package 1.0.0.1 | Wi-Fi: V5.4.0.1920 | BT: V1.1037.0.433) available via the official website from Asus. 

PC Specs if it helps lol:
Windows 11 Pro 24H2
ASUS Prime X870-P (Dont ask why I didnt buy the Wi-Fi Version directly...)
Ryzen 9 9900X3D
PNY RTX 5080 ARGB Epic-X Overclocked
Samsung 980Pro 1 TB (where Apex is installed)
Samsung 970 Evo Plus 1TB (Windows)
Asus PCE-BE6500 (PCIe Wifi/BT Adapter) 

What I already (obviously) tried is reinstalling drivers and verifying the integrity of the game. 
I already had this problem with the previous update of the game. 

The only thing I find online, which sounds similar to my issue, is this link:
https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Apex-kills-internet-adapter/m-p/14036605
but apparently that Bug Report is closed to the public, but still pops up in google search.
Would be helpful though, cause its marked as "solved"....
