You can also try a quick and dirty fix, by slapping a ferrite bead on the HDMI cable. That’s an old trick from the analog world. Depending on how it is picking up interference, this may easily fix it without needing to rebuild your entire setup. Worst case scenario, you’re only out like 10 cents for the bead.

Holy. Fucking. Shit.
This was it.
Here’s my ping output. You can see where I unplugged and replugged the HDMI cable. Absolutely not in my wildest dreams would I have thought of this. Thank you so much.

Would have never expected that, I’m glad I came back to this thread to see if you had made any progress. Searching online about that, sounds like it’s actually a somewhat common issue (that I had never heard of before now). Basically the advice is to try a better quality hdmi cable, swap to 5ghz wifi (which is less likely to get interference from this than 2.4Ghz), route the hdmi cable different to have more space between it and the deck, or add ferrite cores around the ends of the hdmi cable.
