PoE 2 - Freezing at Initial Loading Screen

I've had my game freeze at the initial loading screen, forcing me to have to hard reset my PC. This has happened around five times. When I do get past the initial loading screen, I have what appear to be network issues that cause massive lag spikes, making the game unplayable. Below is the log, though it didn't capture the crash.
