ive had this problem happen to me on atleast two different routers

so when this problem started, the settings were the same they were for the last year, the problem is basically at random times during the day the connection slows down, sometimes down to dial up speeds. so i initially thought it was for sure the router, but i replaced the router and problem persists. and i have connected directly to the modem right when this happens, and i never get speed tests that low, so i really dont think its the modem or connection coming from my isp

ive tried different power outlets for the router and thought for sure that would solve the problem, but i just experienced it not 15 minutes ago. so just looking for anything else i should look for.
