Massive lag spikes, rubber banding when playing Battlefield 2042

Hello

For the past three days I've had to reboot my Hub 4 every time I want to play Battlefield 2042. If I don't I get massive lag spikes, rubber banding and higher than normal latency.

I've also been playing World of Warcraft and that plays fine.

Once I reboot the Hub it is fine.

Any idea what could be causing this?

    I play BF5, Its unplayable. I am getting great speeds, but terrible latency issues, delayed packets and packet loss. Its horrible. The speed is consistent, 550mbps/50mbps, but my latency goes from circa 20 to 80, back to 15, back up to 150, down to 20...its horrific. The entire time I have that warning circle on when playing BFV. If I am playing SWOTR etc or any other game like an MMO, its less of an issue, but FPS is impossible to play. I am so annoyed. Only had this for 1 month and its terrible. I want to cancel.

        Can you please explain how that's the case, when you can see hundreds of posts with people having the same issue?
