You can also try a wireless bridge: https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-Wireless-Travel-Router-TL-WR902AC/dp/B01N5RCZQH/ref=sr_1_43?keywords=ac+wireless+bridge&qid=1585197065&sr=8-43 Essentially you would program this device into a bridge that connects to your existing WiFi connection and then plugs into your ethernet port. Takes the load off of your PCIe lanes and should work just as well as your setup used to, if not better. I always opt for connecting your PC via ethernet but if that's really not viable this is probably your next best option.

He's already shown that the latency is between him and the router by pinging the router directly. A traceroute will also show this but is less of a telltale since it's intermittent and it will only send three pings to each hop.

I've requested mine twice now and have received nothing, not even in spam. Is there a backlog right now?

You'll need to get a network camera and DVR system that connects to your modem in some way. Most of the prebuilt systems have a DVR unit that handles the camera feeds and then you just need Ethernet back to your modem. Some of them have cloud access that you can use to monitor from your phone or laptop. I would recommend one of these as the alternative to being able to access this outside of the network is to set up a VPN and that's going to cost more in supporting equipment and headaches if you just have a basic setup right now. As far as hooking it to a TV you can either use the output video on the back of the DVR or consider using a computer / Pi to connect to a TV and stream it that way unless you want to start getting into network video encoding.

I think you've narrowed it down to either an issue with your router or with your ISP. I am suspecting the router in this case only because you seem to be getting poor ping times between your machine and the router. These should be 1 ms because it's only a single hop between your machine and the router. Try one of these commands: ping -n 100 <ROUTER_IP> - Sends 100 pings OR ping -t <ROUTER_IP> - Continuously pings until you stop it Look to see if there are spikes in ping times over time. If they stay low then try running them again and then start introducing other congestion from another device, maybe play a YouTube video on your phone or something. If either of these affect ping to your router then it may be time for an upgrade because it's having trouble handling that small amount of traffic that it is getting. If the router checks out then I would engage your ISP and report that you've done a bunch of testing and found that the latency is in the circuit. They will push back and ask you to reboot, etc. Just do what you need to do to get a ticket opened and work from there. I work in IT and I have to do this all the time, even with business class internet.
