Crashing+won't open anymore if using Wireshark

Question

Unfortunately, I just discovered that Apex crashes when I open Wireshark. If I have Wireshark open and try to start Apex, Apex no longer starts. So now I'm not even allowed to check my connection for problems? So you're saying that it wouldn't be good if people noticed that the lags and "server problems" are entirely due to the poor routing?
How about getting the anticheat and routing under control instead of banning those affected from using the available checking tools?

I noticed this as well. I ran Wireshark in the past while apex was running to resolve network issues. Tried today and apex crashes saying it detected blocked software or hardware etc... I can't even play the game. 2 days ago, my game started getting nonstop packet loss and every day since, its unplayable. I'm moving in the game at 300 fps but when a teammate or enemy runs by me, they're skipping across my screen at 1 fps lol.&nbsp;
