Connection issues
EDIT: I’ve continued investigating things from my end, and I think I’ve stumbled across what may be the issue. I noticed that my internet connection was a third the speed that it usually is; jigglin...

server-side update several weeks ago
Can you please send me a link to where you saw an update announced?

Work thru everything on this connection troubleshooter. Its a drag, but you don't want to skip anything.
Nothing has changed with my setup
Famous last words. In PC gaming things change all the time without the gamer knowing - driver updates, disk filling up, router updates, etc., not to mention dozens of things between the router and the servers hosting the game.
The announcement came via the Kyber website; the devs there apparently have a working relationship, or at least a line of communication, with EA. Screenshot attached, and the link is here:

As I mentioned in my post, the connection troubleshooter was one of the first things I worked through. I’ve tried everything I can think of at my end, even to the point of reinstalling the game and EA app on a different SSD. I don’t have Kyber installed either.
Famous last words maybe. But after seven years of playing almost daily, it’s not difficult to notice a sudden significant change in connection stability, and I think it’d be a stretch to know that the issues started in the 24 hours surrounding the server-side update and then look everywhere except the most obvious change. Plus there was a widespread server outage for Battlefront 2 last week which affected everyone I know and was posted about on Reddit too, so something definitely seems to be going on at EA’s end.
I don't see anything at the link you provided about an EA/DICE server-side update several weeks ago.
Scroll down one approximately one screen length once you follow the link if you’re on mobile and it’s right there. Or you could just look at the screenshot I attached which shows the same thing.
The notification was posted on the 25th of January; unfortunately they didn’t date the post on the site, but the posts are timestamped in their Discord. They stated in a post, last year I think, that they had passed the list of exploits and fixes on to their contact at EA to implement. Because Kyber is such a large project, the Kyber devs approached EA to seek permission before proceeding with the bulk of their project, hence how they came to have contacts at EA.
its just for their server not EA servers
