Permanent Packetloss and Disconnecting

I'm grinding for top 50 pred on pc right now and apex gets constant packetloss and sometimes i get 100 packetloss and i get abandon penalty, "Lost Connection to EA Servers". I've called my ISPs and they say everything is fine on their end but I still restarted my router. I've also played other games and I have no packetloss. Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

    I’ve been experiencing unusual connection issues while playing Apex Legends on the Sydney server using my PS5 (wired connection). The issue occurs consistently and follows this pattern:

    The first game I play runs smoothly with a stable 45–56ms ping and no noticeable problems.

    However, from the second game onward, I experience severe packet loss (three red squares), teleporting, rubber banding, and prediction errors (two red dotted lines). My ping remains the same, but the game becomes unplayable.

    Restarting Apex Legends temporarily fixes the issue, allowing me to play one good game before the problem returns.

    Switching to a different server resolves the issue, with no red squares or prediction errors—just the expected higher ping due to location differences.

    I’ve tried the following troubleshooting steps:

    Restarted my router and checked my internet connection (other online games work fine).

    Contacted my ISP, who confirmed there are no issues on their end.

    Deleted and reinstalled Apex Legends.

    Tested other servers, which work as expected.

    Since I prefer to play on the Sydney server, I’d like to know if others are experiencing the same issue and whether there’s a solution available. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!
