3 windowed icon in the top left

anyone having packetloss issues? I run a i5-13600KF and an AMD RX6600 and the game runs fine on medium. i get 75fps and it theres never and fps drops or stutters or anything. that is until i see this 3 windowed icon in the top left corner and my game slows and lags. the game runs perfectly smooth until that icon comes up. it makes it so i run at the speed of slow and makes people teleport and my shots not register. anyone know how to fix it? i've tried resetting my router and updating my wifi card drivers and nothing has helped. the games literally unplayable for me as it keeps happening. it especially happens whenever i join any xl games. im on a 500Mb wifi card with attenaes and i have 350mb down and 490mb up. i also have 16gb of ddr4. Like i said the game runs fine until the icon appears and everything slows down and my shots dont register. i enabled the network graphs to pop up if there is a network problem and this is the screenshot i got from it

    Unfortunately the screenshot is showing a cpu bottleneck. Client Frame Time (CFT) is 31ms which is equal to 32fps. (1,000ms ÷ 31ms = 32fps)

    If the PC frame rate goes below the Server Tick Rate (STR) of 45Hz this will cause the Time Nudge (TN) to increase to a massive 623ms. This will cause players to teleport around because now the PC has to interpolate player movement because the PC frame rate is below the server's 45Hz tick rate.

    The 3 rectangular squares in the top left corner mean the PC framerate is below 45fps.

    Check to see if any other programs in the background are using the CPU. Put Battlefield 2042 and window mode by pressing Alt + Enter. Then bring up task manager alt + ctrl + del and set it to 'always remain on top'. Monitor cpu usage while playing.

    If CPU usage is maxed then the CPU is running at it's limit. The only option is to play smaller game modes that are less cpu intensive.

    Double check that RAM memory is running in dual channel mode using CPU-Z. Check CPU temperatures with hwinfo. Temps should not be higher than 90°C.

    Make sure the E cores of the CPU aren't being used for gaming. If for some reason they are then disable them in bios.
