That answer is simple if the only change was the hardware.
That router is not rated that highly online and people have been having similar issues.
Get a new router, explain to your ISP to get a different router from them or if they dont have another one just buy one that is better.
For about a month, everything was working perfectly. Why should be now a problem?

This is why it could be a problem.
But you can try to do the following:

And try to flush your dns by:
Open CMD (Admin) and type: “ipconfig /flushdns” (without the quotes).
Press enter.@EzyHawkHey, ty for the answer. Both routers running on the same ISP. Both routers have the same "ISP Settings" on the setup, i hard reset the TP Link like 5 times and test it with the "ISP Settings" that they gave me, its been a week that start those massive packet loss. I dont have clue what else i can do about it. Tried to flashdns many times in the past aswell.
I do not know the longevity of this router, it may have over heated at some point causing reduced performance like other people have had.
and why would their be a problem now IF no settings have been changed on the router?
- @The_Tibber I have no clue, it was on a table open and close to windows aswell, i have no idea if it got overheated.
