I have tried the steps in this thread such as the command prompts and uninstalling, reinstalling easy anti cheat and I am still experiencing major issues with internet connectivity while Apex is running. Outside of Apex, I have a wired connection that is consistently over 900mbps down, 20mbps up (unusually low in the attachment). While running Apex, the connection is less than 10mbps down, .2 mbps up. I do not have connection issues at any other time or with any other game.
Apex began being unplayable again since the 4/5 update. Here are all of the things that I have tried:
- Rebooting computer - so many times
- Rebooting router
- Switching data centers
- Flushing and changing DNS
- Uninstalling other games to free storage
- Ending all extraneous background tasks (this made the game run better than it was previously but still unplayable)
- Uninstalled on steam, reinstalled and running on origin - no apparent change
I first started noticing connection issues in Apex upon the initial Season 10 update. That update ruined the game so bad I was unable to play for the whole season. At that time, I would connect through matchmaking and get frozen in the loading screen until the game crashed. Outside of the application, I realized that the internet connection on my device was poor while Apex froze (connection issues with Discord audio, speed tests). I had contacted EA help at that time with no resolution until an update came the next season.
Please let me know what else I can try to fix this problem.
