No, because a switch can't route traffic from one point to another. Specifically, it can't do NAT. Without NAT you can only have 1 device connected to the internet.

If you move it and it changes behaviour, that's some sort of bad mechanical contact. Cabling, socket.
Are you sure you know all the rooms in your home? Is the house bigger on the outside than you can account for on the inside?
Are you behind cgnat?
Can you post a screenshot of everything? Can't tell what the link is. Your PC to the router? Your router to the WAN?
Use vlans to create a dmz you can place a server only for public Internet facing stuff.
If you're worried about privacy and security you can always DIY. If you are able, it's always the best option for a NAS.
Try connecting your computer directly with a cable 9t at least test your Internet speed right next to the router. Whatever the result is the best you're going to get from your ISP.
It does, but it is also gradual over that length. Cat 5e cables are rated for full 1gbps at 100m, so in your case it's not worth worrying about.
Yes, that's very true. But worth remembering that while you can usually get away with cat 5 for 1gbps, that's only up to a certain length, depending on the quality of the cable. If your cable is in or around the threshold for that particular cable where noise picks up, you could get inconsistent speeds like OP is.

I'm not sure I follow. You can terminate your cables into wall mounted sockets just like your electrics. What's the issue with this?
