Can you log in to the Cerberus network at all?
Yes actually, it doesn't automatically log me in- but I can manually log in. After doings so however, I try to load my game and it gives the error message again that it cannot verify my DLC.
What DLCs exactly are not getting verified?
The Cerberus network DLCs or others?
Do you own the ME2 DLC bundel?
I do not own the DLC bundle, but I do own all of the DLCs. Origin also tells me that every single one of them is installed- including Cerberus Network. I bought all the DLCs seperately, back in the day.
Then I would assume that parts of ALOT remain in the DLCs folders, but the DLLs that are needed to get the DLCs verified if they are changed by a mod are missing.
Try to repair the game. (in Origin > Game Library > right click ME2 > Repair)
I'm currently repairing the files- this might take a bit. I'll get back to you right after it's done!
I have repaired all the files and tested the game- I still get an error message saying that it can't connect to the ME2 servers, but for some reason I can now load my old game files with all DLC intact and working. Question: considering how ALOT never gave me any issues before and is technically only a texture update, is there any reason why it wouldn't work now? Or maybe you have some tips for using ALOT?
Regardless- many thanks for your help! ALOT or not I can at least play the game now!

No, I see no reason.
But it is always a good idea to start modding at a complete vanilla game.
This should be the case after a game repair, but if you not 100% sure you should do a complete clean re-installation of the game.
(Making a back up of the vanilla game will speed up the process of purging errors very much.)
Clean re-installation means also that you also get ride of the ME2 folders under "Documents\BioWare". (Move the "Mass Effect 2" folder from under "Documents\BioWare" to a save place outside the "BioWare" folder so you have a backup of your save games. You can copy them back after the installation has finished.
Apart from that, read the instructions on the ALOT Nexus page very carefully before you start. (Things change sometimes rather quickly if it comes to mods.) 😉
You however should solve the "can't connect to the ME2 servers" problem first. This could lead to problems.
Other culprits for this problem could be a overprotective virus scanner, wrong firewall configuration or a account problem. (among other things.)
