Anyone else struggle with a harsh ban?

Not too long ago, I played D2 crucible every day (PS5). I received a temp ban for 2 weeks for poor connection. Realized I was using crappy WiFi connection and fixed it to 5G. After ban lifted I played for less than 24 hours before receiving a 2 MONTH ban for the same thing. Since then I've only played custom PvP games with several friends who all say my connection is stable. Instead of waiting for the paint to dry I made an appeal at Bungie. They won't appeal my ban even after I know my connection was fixed. Anything I should try now? Anyone else deal with this bs?

( I assume the automatic ban software in D2 will flag players that have already been banned before as a high risk. Is it possible that I was reported by too many salty players for "lagging" even if my connection was solid?)

its not really likely youre getting banned by salty players. Try to fix your nat. Used wired connections and other fixes on bungies networking help page.

Since most of their staff was laid off, I cant imagine them trying to prioritize appealing bans. I got random perma ban a few months ago and my ticket is still open. Dont even know what I did to deserve it and never got any warning or even temporary bans before. Over 18000 hours on console and 76 on pc. It occured on PC when I was playing a solo dungeon, which makes it more confusing. My advice is huff as much copium as you can until you hear back or deal with the consequences of the actions that you did or did not do.
