Are you running your internet over a mobile hotspot? Cause that's the nature when gaming with mobile hotspot, happens to me all the time too. I mitigate the issue by running a VPN on my laptop (not VPN on the mobile phone), and it will be fine most of the time. Of-course the VPN server may also crash (rare but happens), and then you'll get DC with the same red latency, usually resulting in death because the game server is still fine while your connection is lagging. So, it is frustrating for the unwarranted death, but the game server is just working as intended.

My PC is connected directly to the modem with an RJ45 Cable.

Once every now and then is not a big deal, it happens.

But EVERY day? At least once a day? RAGE

But is your modem running off a Sim Card connection? Not sure about others tech like Starlink's satellite-based connection, which may also be subjected to the same issue. The problem is almost certainly with your connection side, cause if it's the server side, you'd be sure to hear it first hand from all those regulars.

This used to happen to me a lot. Once it happens, no way to recover it besides relogging. You see it turn yellow and yep, just pull the plug. Particularly annoying if running 6 accounts, I must say.

The good news: it stopped happening.

The bad news: I don't know why it stopped happening, so that doesn't help ya.

Earlier this week Cloudfire was having issues and many sites were inaccessible or became buggy as all heck, while others worked perfectly fine. All of the sites affected could not do anything to alleviate the problem. They all had to wait for Cloudfire to get itself sorted out. I do not believe this is what caused the OPs issues as it was mostly last Wednesday that this happened, but it is an example of the internet being more complex than many give credit for. Something happening somewhere seemingly unrelated can still have an impact.

I have no doubts that the OP experienced the reported issues. But as others are trying to point out, there are multitudes of variable that could cause such a thing, and it's better to investigate and eliminate variables so as to find the actual source of the problem rather than raging at the first thing that comes to mind (even if the guess is correct, still best to make sure).

Every day? That sounds like a router problem. I had an issue where the logs were filling up on mine and it would occasionally stop to clean them up. There could be other settings that are causing it. Routers are black magic sometimes. It could be outside RF interference. One thing it does not sound like is SSG otherwise there would be a lot more complaints.

After repeated DCs all day yesterday. Then one within 5 minutes of logging in this morning I tried disabling all the Razor Synapse apps in the system tray and have not had a similar DC yet.

Not 100% sure this was it but it's a start.
