Maybe you just have to live with it. You seem to have tried everything.
Oh, dear just noticed this. According to Netgear's manual for this device the LAN and WAN support only 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX. That makes it slower than many newer internet services and most modern network hardware.It also slows down whatever is going on in your local network. Newer devices support 1000BASE-TX.
I'd lay money on your internet connection being faster than 100 Mbps.
This is a basic and inexpensive router. Time for a replacement.
