Error 216 Start Wars Battle Front II constantly

I've been playing this game for a while, no issues - then a few days ago, it's constantly rendering 216 error. 
Rebooted
Reinstalled
Rebuilt Database
Cleared Cache
Designated Ports are open, and the internet speed is over 500 Mbps. There are no networking issues, as I control our network from the router and have validated everything, including ports. The firewall isn't blocking it. I believe this is a server issue on the EA network. Reviewing the forums dating back more than 5 years, this has been an ongoing issue. 
There have been gamers posting about this for the past week.

    Hi there, 
    I'm sorry to hear you're having problems playing SWBF2. 

    There's a workaround you can try:

    • Launch a single-player arcade match.
    • Play briefly, then exit.
    • Try joining a multiplayer match again

    I hope this helps.

    No this didn't help either. Tried this multiple times.
