The same issue is happening to me only on Team Deathmatch though, also I try to load into the match the first time it disconnects my internet briefly then I try again and I get into a match. Like how does that work? Other game modes play as expected with no problems, it's only the TDM mode I have problems with.
With that said, I know for a fact that it's not an issue on my end since I can play the game perfectly with no faults. However there is a fault somewhere in the TDM game mode that spikes the servers/your internet and crashes by what I understand. So I believe there is some sort of network error on the server and it needs to be restarted / refreshed.
I had very similar problems to the OP over the past few months.
Often when I go into BF2042 and my wife enters the same game I'm in, I will hear some garbled audio, stuttering then my ethernet connection disconnects (but sometimes it happens when playing by myself online). Wife is still connected to the Internet, playing the game and the modem seems fine. But somehow, happens to my PC. I've tried a whole bunch of things to no avail:
- Reinstalling network drivers
- Windows network reset
- Plugged ethernet cable into different port in modem
- Installed latest drivers
- Ran a malware scan (no malware)
- Repaired Easy Anti-Cheat
- Ran sfc /scannow
- Ran Program as Administrator
- Power Cycling
- Uninstalling and reinstalling Battlefield 2042 ONLY (not EA App)
- Run EAC as Administrator
- BIOS update
- Prime 95 Test (no memory issues)

I have the same problem since the beginning of the season 6. Simply the game just shot down my internet connection when I try to play. That's happens in loading screen. I have a dial up ethernet gigabit connection via direct cable (CAT 7). Before this new season everything worked flawless with BF 2042,but now I can't even play anymore because of this issue. Every time when this happens,I need to do a restart to my PC in order to restore my internet connection.
No one at EA or DICE gives a * about this situation,there is like 2 or 3 similar threads in this area with people having the same problem and not a single response from developers.
