so after the downgrade it did get a lot better, the router still drops packets but not as significant as before, but the fact remains its still dropping out some how.
When previously before it would drop packet hard at the top and make a red line across all 3 and cause the hard stutter, this time it isnt hard stuttering and its only dropping at the router side.
Tomorrow i still have the rma for amazon im torn on what to do.

That plot looks really good to me, the packet loss looks very minimal. If it's not actually causing you a network issue then I would say that's normal. Sometimes packet loss happens but it's not always bad. A service or program could send more packets than is needed to ensure it gets to its destination and therefore some may get dropped along the way.
