Major packet Loss

I’ve been experiencing major packet loss in Apex Legends recently to the point where the game is completely unplayable, and it only happens in ranked matches. The game stutters heavily and becomes a slideshow, while other online games on the same connection work perfectly fine. I’ve had this exact setup for years — Xfinity/Comcast with a Google Nest WiFi router — and never had issues like this until recently. I’ve tried everything: restarting the modem, changing DNS settings, enabling UPnP, switching devices, and even testing my connection, which shows no problems at all. This only seems to happen with Apex, specifically in ranked. From what I’ve read online, this started happening after Respawn reintroduced the anti-DDoS server routing, and it looks like certain ISPs like Xfinity don’t play well with the new setup. Some people say the only fixes are either switching ISPs, waiting for Respawn to address it, or using a VPN, which I haven’t tried yet. Just wanted to share this in case others are running into the same issue and to hopefully get it on EA/Respawn’s radar.
