Matchmaking doesn't work with 4G internet.

Hi, I'm temporarily living in a rural location that only has access to mobile internet (Provider: EE). This network seems to be completely incompatible with Deadlock (and CS2) matchmaking. I'm not an expert but I suspect this is a side effect of 4g not using static IPs or something along those lines. The only workaround I've found to actually play the game is using a VPN to queue for a match, and then disabling the VPN once I join the game server (this is quite unreliable and usually requires me to the try different VPN locations before it works). I've also experienced bugs during the match where I'm not able to buy any items until I rejoin the server (this also happens with the CS2 buy menu).

I just want to make sure devs are aware of this, and in the meantime if anyone has any suggestions for a more reliable way to solve this please let me know.
 
This message will appear on screen when trying to search or join a party:
"You are not currently signed in to Steam or the Deadlock Network is unable to determine your current connectivity to our servers"
This error will spam the console when trying to connect to a game server without my VPN enabled:
Cannot access SDR network. Unable to communicate with ANY of 30 Steam Datagram routing cluster. Possible problem with local internet connection?
