Look at setting up Zabbix (https://www.zabbix.com/ - open source so yep, free) you can then do ping and latency tests to key hosts/endpoints and get packet loss and other variables in a graphical format.

- How do I effectively test my internet latency? : r/techsupport - Reddit
My speed tests are regularly ~800mb/s with low latency (<10ms). On voice and video calls I've noticed way more drop outs and cuts in the audio, freezing video. In an app I use for voice chat, Discord, it shows my ping.
I like to check the speed of the server from wherever I am when looking for what is slowing things down. Test from inside the network, run from another point on a VPN, run from completely outside.
PRTG Server is free for 100 sensors (requires Windows). I'd setup pings to your gateway, then the ISP's gateway, and various other big endpoints like 365 and you'll easily be able to tell what's going on, and when, with logging.
You must first install the speedtest application for your OS...W$, Mac or Linux. Linux then just requires an open terminal. Type "speedtest" and the test runs and displays the result. As the test bypasses the browser, it is free of effects from scripts and such.
Analyze your network's stability and speed using our free latency monitoring tool. Runs forever to detect any spikes in latency or drops in packets.
Latency. Round trip time latency (or RTT) is the time it takes for a packet to be sent from your computer to Cloudflare's network and back. It is especially important for applications such as gaming and video chat, where you want to be as up to date as possible.
