Hello,

Hop 8 shows no packet loss, so the "loss" at hop 7 is likely more apparent than real, and probably not significant. Please see https://www.dslreports.com/faq/14068. The fact that hops beyond than ones you are concerned received the trace packets indicates that the router at that address is doing its job: forwarding data packets. The hop 7 router's occasional delay in or failure to respond to trace packets, while annoying, is most likely not actually slowing down data transfer. If it was we'd see high RTT values and/or packet loss in all subsequent hops.
Interpreting trace results is tricky. What appears to be "late" or is reported as "lost" could mean 1) the packet did not reach or was delayed in reaching that hop, or 2) the router at that hop didn't reply or was slow to reply, or 3) the reply from that hop didn't make it back or was delayed in making it back to the trace program.
OTOH the trace shows that RTT to the very first hop is sometimes over 200ms, which is way too high.

Are you connecting via Wifi or Ethernet? If Wifi, switch to an Ethernet cable connection if possible and rerun PingPlotter.
