Battlefield 1 unplayable (disconnected from the EA server)

Question

It’s been going on for a long time. I get disconnected in every other session, which makes the game pretty much unplayable. I cannot find out what may be the issue here. Things that I tried:

- launch from the EA client
- clear the EA app cash
- check local files (steam)
- DNS change
- Firewall is not blocking the apps
- tried with both Ethernet and Wifi, yet they yield the same exact results

Furthermore, no other online vg gives me any similar issues. My ping is always in the range of 25-50. Is the issue solvable at all at this point? I checked the forums and haven’t seen anything that could have helped.

Having the same issue, play a match for about 7min tops and get booted out by black screen to a screen saying "you have lost connection" on the main menu.

I can join back almost immediately but makes this impossible to actually enjoy the game.

Same here, able to load into the loading screen for the match but never get to play anything. Keeps telling me "Connection to EA servers timed out"

The problem is that more than a few people are getting this same issue.

Same issue, log in, join game, play for anywhere from 15mins to an hour and a half and get booted to menu. "YOU HAVE LOST CONNECTION TO EA SERVERS." Reconnects immediately upon hitting "Go Online". Usually boots me out of the next game even faster, maybe 5-10 minutes. Game is unplayable. Only happened after update that introduced EA anticheat.
