Dropping packets consistently every three requests
Greetings,
It appears that my router is consistently dropping one packet every three requests, regardless of the website I am visiting. This is causing a poor browsing experience, with frequent lag of over a second and occasional need to refresh pages to load them.
Interestingly, when I connect to a VPN, the problem disappears.
I have attempted to resolve the issue by upgrading and downgrading firmware, resetting to factory settings, and enabling/disabling firewalls, but to no avail.
Do you have any ideas as to what may be causing this issue?
