Packet loss central NJ in Apex Legends

Hello, I am in central New Jersey having packet loss from playing apex legends. It only occurs in ranked lobbies where there is DDOS protection for the servers. 

I have tried different modems, using a vpn, different cable, different PC, restart modem, having a Xfinity  come to my home and they replaced cable outside the home. None of it has solved my packet loss issues. I am using direct Ethernet connection. 

Based off the posts on this forum this seems to be a pervasive issue for Xfinity NJ customers. Please assist me in fixing this.
