Apex Legends Unable to connect to EA servers

@growndan On some of those hops you're losing up to 50% of the data sent, are you playing on WiFi?

Same here and with my buddy (Sweden). Had this problem last night where we got kicked off the servers after loss. Figured it was issues due to overloaded servers so we switched game for an hour, got back and it worked again. Played this morning for 3-4 hours without a problem and now its down again. Have no issues with my connection, I really don't see how this is a problem on so many users side.

@xenitaj About an hour ago there was a brief (few minutes) outage, are you able to connect again now?

@EA-Cade i cannot play either, it say's unable to connect, can i get some help please :D?

[EA_Cade]

@Joneko420 Are you able to get in eventually or does it never matchmake at all?

[Joneko420]

Like, i try to start the game and after the first loading screen it says something like origin needs to update and unable to connect

[EA_Cade]

@Joneko420 Sorry to hear it, can you try these steps please and let me know if they help? http://bit.ly/Origin_Cache_Clear

Ok, i'll give it a try

In addition to the inevitable disconnect after each match with the message "Connection to server timed out: See ea.com/unable-to-connect for additional information" and having to spam Retry for 15 or more minutes with the error "Unable to connect to EA Servers. Please check your Internet connection and try again. See ea.com/unable-to-connect for additional information", sometimes I cant even get to the Legend Selection Screen before I receive the same message I get when the match ends.

I tried all the tips from the unable-to-connect article, made a new account, re-installed the game, rebooted the router and nothing worked so far. Used the Ultima Online Trace Utility and below are the results.
