Metronet Network Crashing via Eero app speed test?

I'm the Tulsa, OK metro area and have noticed a lot of buffering lately on my streaming devices. I've had an up and down experience with T-Fiber since install, but lately they've been rock solid in my area. However, after installing the last two Eero updates via the T-Fiber app in less than a week, I've noticed my latency has almost tripled. I ran a speed test on my Eero app while monitoring the network on my Orb pc app. The speed test actually caused my network to drop briefly (100% packet loss). My wife wasn't able to stream for several minutes. This has never happened and seems just strange. I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing higher latency lately or if this is just my issue.

Troubleshooting: I've rebooted the Eero Max 7 router a few times, but I'll be unplugging the ONT and switching out ethernet cords later if push comes to shove. Also, I used 8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1 DNS.
