As title says, since Season of Seraph, it appears over multiple ISP networks in the UK I have been having non stop error codes(Weasel, Anteater etc), disconnects and boots to orbit/title screen or outright crash to desktop.
Issue started since Bungie implemented these arrays that were installed to protect against DDoS.
-1st network was on PlusNet, with a very low download and upload rate but I experienced no issues with other games online and had been playing fine on Destiny roughly 6 months prior to the array implementation in Season of the Seraph.
-2nd network was on Virgin media with a generous 1GB line. Again no other issues with other games that have both Peer to Peer and dedicated server setup.
-3rd network and current on HyperOptic, similar 1GB line but symmetrical on both download and upload.
I have been sifting through online forums and other forms of online content to get any form of fix for a year and a half.
On each network I have enabled and setup port forwarding and still experience severe disconnect issues, despite advice from Bungie help posts and confirming NAT type has gone from moderate to open.
I have come across a few posts over time suggesting the use of VPN. Upon testing this suggestion it appears that this does sort of patch the issue with disconnects but it is also not a solution to the problem, but more a plaster on the symptom. It also degrades the experience as you're more susceptible to lag. Not to mention the personal COST.
I work in IT so I have troubleshot my device as much as I can and have found no fault with hardware and can confirm this definitely isn't affecting other online games, even when in 128+ player servers.
I have reinstalled drivers, updated mobo and anything that might directly affect networking, among many other things.
Ping and jitter is very rare on the most recent 1GB networks.
I honestly don't want to be spending more of my free time doing what I do for work and getting nowhere due to lack of information from Bungie or action on poor infrastructure that Bungie have admitted to in the past.
As you can understand, this is seriously getting frustrating and I'm also now paying regularly for a fix that isn't even 100% as I still get DC 'ed on the VPN. Not to mention; recently having to pay extra, monthly, for a static IP to enable port-forwarding on my most recent network with HyperOptic.
Is there any way we can get up to date information on Bungie servers, so I can at least run a trace test? This is so I can find out if there is something in-between affecting my device from communicating with Bungie servers or if it's Bungie's infrastructure.

Info here seems potentially outdated, can we confirm this?

Pings on this site seem to be 1 - 2 ms across the board

0% packet loss
Is there anything else I can try setting up to resolve this other than just "port-forwarding"?
On a side note, in-between moving properties I had to hotspot on my mobile with EE recently - obviously I am unable to manage port forwarding through a mobile device hotspot and also the NAT type was set to strict/closed. However, despite all of this, I experienced very little to no disconnects but obviously experience lag.

Please see latest crash report. This was straight after anteater code which normal goes to orbit but at times now crashes to desktop(I have amended any personal info out of the log for privacy): stack: 00007FF78695D20B <unknown> 00007FF7866F0401 <unknown> 00007FF7861C9380 <unknown> 00007FF7866B4920 <unknown> 00007FF785E4B152 <unknown> 00007FF7866C7C1A <unknown> 00007FF7862E34C3 <unknown> 00007FF7862E37A6 <unknown> 00007FF9018A257D <unknown> 00007FF90320AA48 <unknown> session_id: Mon_05272024_152243_018864@x64_steam@76561197980379166@7D_6C_79_CF_C2_71_FF45 version: v500_live.main tiger_final release pc_x64 225530.24.05.01.1730.v500_live.main 24.05.01 1730 thread information: thread_name: unknown, thread_id: 00001d24 halt: ### RUNTIME ERROR: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION at 00007FF786861B12 halt information: (<unknown>) crash: tried to read address 0000000000000008 fatal error detected, current status was: init: init.txt version: v500_live.main tiger_final release pc_x64 225530.24.05.01.1730.v500_live.main 24.05.01 1730 session_id: Mon_05272024_152243_018864@x64_steam@76561197980379166@7D_6C_79_CF_C2_71_FF45 GPU Device: AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT GPU VendorId: 4098 GPU DeviceId: 29631 GPU SubSysId: 1761681070 GPU Revision: 192 silo_id: 1665943537140127744 signon_server_reported_content_version: 225530.225530-23 authority-over-current-bubble: false - map slice set 'HASH(0x811c9dc5)':-1, activity slice set -1 world_controller previous_state: activity:physics_join world_controller state: activity:in_world world_controller state_reason: normal_flow environment_string: D2_ProdRetail:2840 install type: 5 change-world: loaded dungeon_prophecy.dungeon_prophecy game_instance: 280D6E7AB98F26B6 game_tick: time 0 game_is_playback: false account_id: 4611686018484852376 activity-slice-set-index: 8 map-slice-set-index: 1 in-public-bubble: false character_id: 2305843009410946926 client_config_cookie: 20737694578962688 AH active workspace: <no active workspace> activity_host_fireteam_is_connected: yes activity_host_last_fireteam_session_id: Mon_05272024_023004_134520@x64@game_svc_lp$@6A_DF_BA_07_F3_6B_800D activity_tier: e_activity_tier.three activity_host_group_target_is_connected: no activity_host_group_target_session_id: Mon_05272024_045049_104184@x64@game_svc_lp$@AA_BE_12_A2_0D_AD_515E activity_host_group_current_is_connected: no activity_host_last_group_current_session_id: Mon_05272024_020456_070780@x64@game_svc_lp$@A2_BD_AF_72_5A_49_C9D1 current phase path: HASH(0xee4b9056).BUNDLE(0xee4b9056).HASH(0x3681d74c).BUNDLE(0x7f1efb76) current phase: BUNDLE(0x7f1efb76) system_milliseconds: time 17270104 is_current_bubble_authority: false pc_platform: steam pc_platform_ui: unknown pc_windows_version: Windows 10 language_system: english language_ui: english language_audio: english language_current: english crash_folder_location: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp\Destiny 2\crash_folder\crash_folder_18864_20240527_155139\ primary_bap_server_ip_address: 205.209.21.99 primary_bap_server_port: 7500 world_controller state_status: activity:in_world (goal:002:activity:in_world) player_position_x: unknown player_position_y: unknown player_position_z: unknown
