When I start downloading torrents on my PC, I have an issue where the router loses internet connection completely until I restart it.

I have included additional details below:

• I am running Windows 11 which I reinstalled 20 minutes ago.
• All other downloads like Steam, Xbox, and PlayStation work normally.
• Downloading the same torrents on my phone works normally via the same WiFi.
• I have tried tethering to the home WiFi via my phone and it disables internet as well.
• Tethering to 5G via phone downloads torrents normally.
• I have called my operator and they say there are no download restrictions.
• The router is ZTE ZXHN H3600P.

I am losing my mind trying to fix this, I can't download anything.

Thank you in advance.
