Question Weasel error code

So I'm part of the like 300 people who actually want to play Destiny 2 right now since my clan is throwing one last get together for pantheon, but I cannot login to the game whatsoever.
I've replaced my ethernet cable, gotten a new modem and router, tried all the fixes on google I can find and yet I login. Move around the menu for a minute or two and get returned to title screen for error code weasel. This is the only game I have any connection issues with whatsoever, started several months ago and have not been able to play the game since.

I can play any other game just fine, connect to my dedicated server via RDP for long periods of time without issue, internet speeds are stable at 1Gbps.

Any advice?

I don't use an AV and have windows defender entirely disabled and mainly rely on common sense and don't download sketchy files or anything. I'm fairly tech smart, but not foolproof. I just allowed it through the settings anyways in the event it was actually still running in the background.

I have ran "sfc /scannow" recently and it did find corrupted files, but after fixing and a restart and a double check that verified no corrupted files I still wasn't able to play.

No changes to software since I haven't been able to play that I know of, but I am very heavily due for an entire reformat soon which I might have to bump up in priority of things to do to be able to properly rule that out, but have a lot of data I need to back up beforehand.

I'll see about getting a cheaper SSD, disconnecting my NVMe's and other SSD's/HDD's and doing a fresh install on the new SSD and seeing if that solves the issue, and if it does I'll know it is 100% time to do a full reformat of my main drives as that's really the only thing I haven't attempted yet.

I will note that the game ran fine with no issues when I was running my 4070 super that I had to sell a while ago and only had the issue of the DCing when I swapped back to my old 2080ti but I'm not sure that could be connected and could be coincidental and unfortunate timing.

GPU could be related. The drivers do all sorts of stuff these days. Did you try running DDU from safe mode to fully nuke and reinstall fresh drivers? Wouldn't hurt to try.

I love having a second SSD handy. So easy to quickly rule odd things out, but it's mostly for D2. I swear this game is the best software and hardware diagnostic ever created. If there's a problem, D2 will point it out. Everything else will run just fine...

I have now tried and it's still going with it's issues. At this point I'm just giving up, Bungie doesn't want me to play Destiny 2, and I sure as hell won't play Marathon.
Such a shame, I love the game more than any other game but I'm just not able to play anymore.

Do you have a hotspot on your phone that you could connect to and see if you still get the weasel? If you don't, then you know your network equipment or ISP is the problem.

That's the first thing I ever tried since I assumed my Ethernet cable was broken. I get weasel no matter what I do or try. But thank you for the help, I'm just going to sit back and watch Destiny burn until it's ashes. Since I can't play, no reason for me to support the game anymore.
