I had the same problem a couple of days ago. And today I fixed. I had Apex legends installed on my pc but never played it before. A couple of days ago I decided that I wanted to try it, but whenever I tried it, i was getting prediction error and packet loss symbols all the time. The game was literally unplayable. So here is how I fixed my problem and hopefully that will work someone else as well.
All you need to do is forward the network ports that Apex legendes needs. Once I did that, the problem was solved.
My computer is connected via LAN cable to D-LINK router I have. And the router is connected to a CISCO cable modem modem via LAN cable. So if you have kind of the same the setup you would to do port forwarding on both devices (router and cable modem).
Here is the link of the port that you need to do port forwarding for Apex Legends
Here is a link on how to port forwarding:

But keep mind that every cable modem and router settings a slightly different.
A bit late here but I get prediction errors on apex non stop to the point that the game is unplayable. I port forwarded my xbox but it didn't solve the problem do I need to forward all of the ports that apex uses?
- @fellix360 You need to try changing your ISP. On my provider, this error occurs a maximum of 1-2 times a week.
It is not ISP problem. People all over the world have this issue with different internet providers. Also remember - wherever you live 90% of cabling ISP uses is shared between them. Most if not all of the time they also go via the same central. The problem is on APEX side not on players side.
I loose at least 1 in 10 games due to this problem.
