Solutions for "Dedicated server not responding; disconnecting"?

I've been dealing with this for like a year now, and have no idea how I'd format this for a bug report, especially since I don't record every single one of my games on the off chance this happens. I'm also pretty sure BHVR's aware it's happening anyway.

I'm sure there are plenty of different ways this particular problem manifests, so some details: Only happens when I'm on killer, always happens after a pallet break, a gen kick, a down, or a hook. My internet is 100% stable, packet loss tests confirm this along with tons of anecdotal evidence (streams I have up in the background run completely smoothly through these server DCs, for example).

I've seen posts in the past saying that synchronizing your system's clock can help, but it's done very little for me, if anything. I don't know what else to try, so I thought I'd ask if any of you have managed to fix this before! I'm sick of close games abruptly ending and the matchmaking penalties, haha
