Steps to Reproduce

Queue into a public match
Load into the match normally
Shortly after the match starts, the Wi-Fi icon turns yellow
Severe lag occurs (teleporting/desync)
Get disconnected from the match
Attempt to re-queue and receive a match lock

Explanation

Every time I join a match, my connection icon turns yellow shortly after the match starts. When this happens, I experience severe lag, including rubberbanding and teleporting into walls. This causes survivors to lose chase with me because my character desyncs due to lag. Shortly after, I get disconnected from the match. When I attempt to queue again, I receive a match lock penalty even though the disconnect appears to be caused by connection instability or server issues. This happens repeatedly and makes matches unplayable.
