The exact same problem. NordVPN shouldn't block BF2042 but it is and BF5 too while using the Split Tunnelling feature. This a recent thing from what I can tell. Sadly my VPN comes before BF. Not worth installing any EA game then.
Oh and the lag on the new map is horrendous. If that's not enough to uninstall the game for.
