the lobby server connection has encountered an error 2002 massive problem

A few friend of mine started having the same issue a few days ago and now it started affecting me as well. I can connect just fine on EU/JP Data Center but not on Aether.
I'm wasting my last 4 days of subs disconnected and unable to run anything with friends. (been watching other players disconnecting a lot during dutys before too)

- Platform
PC
- Type of connection
WIRED
- Other programs running while the game is playing
ONLY DISCORD
- Everything you have tried to resolve the issue
Restarting modem, connecting on other data centers to make sure that wasnt my problem..
