Radio? Maybe a $15 antenna will help; an option after the settings are checked and before the plan is changed. I have a couple of stations that behave like that and the antenna helped.

Full selection, they have 4 NYC/LI locations.
Link to speedtest.net for Sparky's idea.
Have you tested against another streaming service? Testing against the neighbor was great.
Sometimes you need to run through router settings very deliberately, researching settings along the way, i.e. power management, exceptions, exemptions.
When you try the speedtest, note the IP address before and after the test. You'll find it in the bottom left corner of the testing graphic. I doubt it will change, but your neighbor's "business class" service most likely has a static IP address, permanently assigned to his hardware. Yours will change addresses sometimes, but almost exclusively when you turn the modem off and on, hence my doubt.
