Cannot Connect EA server at FC26, but FC25 is no problem.

I have been experiencing persistent issues connecting to EA servers while playing FC26 on my PlayStation 5 since the game's launch. Despite multiple attempts, I am usually unable to establish a connection, and recently, I have been completely unable to connect at all.

For comparison, I have tested FC25 on the same console and network without any connectivity problems. This issue appears to be isolated to FC26 on my PS5.

Could you please assist in diagnosing and resolving this connectivity problem? Any guidance or support would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
