Mystery network issue.

Alright, I only come here as a last resort, and I really need some help. Looking online this issue seems COMPLETELY unique to me and it's really frustrating. Last night the internet abruptly and suddenly... Changed. It didn't disconnect me completely, but all of the sudden I couldn't do certain things on my desktop. But they're inconsistent. For instance, steam and discord won't launch because they can't find a network, and yet I can load YouTube videos. I can make Google searches and it returns results, but it times out if I try to click on any. I also launched a hotspot on my phone to see if it was my PC, and it wasn't. Worked fine on the hotspot. I've tried resetting and power cycling, ipconfig renew/dns flush/winsock/cmd bullshit, and I'm about ready to just smash my router.

It's a netgear WNR1000 V2, we get internet from Comcast, and I typically connect wirelessly, but even when I tried Ethernet, same issues arose. Please help, sanity wearing thin.
