My wifi has been unstable for the last few days. I finally went ahead and chatted with Verizon last night and we shared screens and the nice gentleman helped me through to find the problem. High ping. My wifi will just loose Internet connection because of such a high ping in my wifi. The man sent this issue to a higher team. Is their any way that i can fix this my self. He is the tracert.

There are no high ping times in that trace route. What is happening with your wife's computer?

Something's strange with that tracert.  The 1st step should be to the OP's router...probably 192.168.1.1, and should be <1 ms.

download, install & run the inhome agent and use the wifi fix tool.   www.verizon.com/connect

should clear that up

Might be time to factory reset the router. That's a very unusual traceroute. Firewalls can cause similar behavior in traceroutes, but I'm failing to see where the latency would be.
