Re: Why Apex Kill My Internet

@EA_Kent Hi Kent, I am facing similar issue where my Apex not only kills the wifi, but also shuts down my network card. I would be happy to share any logs that you might require. This is happening only in Apex legends and my other games are unaffected. I am not sure if this is being caused by easy cheat or steam, but any assistance will be highly appreciated.
  • @EA_Kent It was an easy anticheat issue. I uninstalled easy anticheat after removing apex from steam and reinstalled everything. That seems to have fixed the issue

    Could you share a full DxDiag when you have the chance? 

    For more info on how to pull one up check out the EA Help website. Once you have the text file please attach it to this thread. Thanks!

    Thank you!

    I noticed a few Windows processes seem to be crashing in the Diagnostics you attached. Could you try running the Windows System File Checker tool to see if it's able to find any issues? 

    You can find more info on how to run the tool at the Microsoft Support website. Please let me know how it goes once you've had the chance to give it a try. Thanks!

    Thanks for giving that a shot!

    Just to make sure I understand correctly, is only your PC losing network connectivity, or is your actual router/modem itself dropping its connection? 

  • @EA_Kent It's on the PC only. Other devices have fine connectio

    I found a workaround. I created a new user on my PC, signed into origin, and I am not experiencing the same lag issues. There must be some software running on my main user that is disrupting Apex. I tried ending all non essential programs before reaching this workaround.

    Hmm, gotcha. Did you set up the UAC for the new Windows user any differently?
