timed out error

Hey, I tried finding a way to contact EA Support but can't find anything, so I'm posting here.

Problem:
Whenever I try to join any multiplayer match in Battlefield 6, I receive a “Timed Out” error. The game launches fine, menus work, but I can’t connect to any game. This has been consistent for the past 5 hours.

Info:
Playing through Steam on a Windows 10 machine.

Troubleshooting I already tried:

• Restarted PC, router, and modem
• Verified game files in Steam
• Flushed and renewed network stack
• Disabled firewall/antivirus temporarily and allowed EA + Battlefield through Windows Defender
• Checked NAT type and enabled UPnP on router
• Forwarded EA/Battlefield ports manually
• Tried multiple DNS servers (Google and Cloudflare)
• Removed external USB drives and devices
• Tried alternate routing via VPN (NordVPN)
• Ran traceroute/ping tests to EA servers (easo.ea.com, battlefield.com) → packets reach EA edge nodes, but game still times out
• Tried launching directly through EA App, but the game doesn’t appear in my EA Library even though it’s linked and installed via Steam
• Unlinked and relinked Steam ↔ EA accounts
• Reinstalled the game and EA Desktop app
• Cleared EA cache
• Repaired the anti-cheat instance

Current status:
The game installs normally and I can launch it. The EA App doesn't start automatically, and when I join a game, I get disconnected within 10 seconds.

Thanks in advance for any help!
