For quite a while now (since maybe around Christmas, I live in Tennessee which was around the time the rv explosion near my ISP-AT&T-happened, once my net was back this began happening), I've had an issue where my desktop that is connected to the router via powerline adapters just cannot stay connected and will constantly disconnect and reconnect or give me unbearably slow speeds (Kbps). I assume the disconnects are universal as when it happens on my desktop it happens to all of them, getting errors such as "Your connection is not private," "No internet," or the "gateway authentication failure" message from my ISP. I've also checked our ISP site and whenever the connecrion drops, our direct connection to AT&T does as well, so maybe it is on their end? I honestly don't know.
I searched into it and assumed that maybe it was something like a botnet or spyware but I can't even download anti-spyware or anything (sometimes i would get lucky and be able to download a small few megabyte song or two within 10 minutes but that was it) for that matter to begin with as the connection will drop and fail the download.
Hopefully that was a descriptive enough explanation, any other questions I am happy to answer, also specs:
Router: Pace 5268AC
Powerline Adapters: can not remember and cant find them online but they are similar to the tplink av2000 except a single gigabit port and 1000Mbps
Specs: Gigabyte A520 S2H
Ryzen 7 3700x
Corsair Vengeance @3600Mhz (16gb)
GTX 1060 AMP! Edition
cpu is also relatively new as well, installed around christmas time with no issues prior to the attack
