Ok, shall see.
I tested the connection directly at the router. It's not really better,
so I cannot really blame hardware behind (i.e. switches between the
router and the computer).
I will see about the various comments send by the participants to the
thread.

I have my openbsd router (Protecli hardware) just behind. This hardware
caps the connection at ~ 850 M/s up and down (this is what speed test
and iperf shows). Pretty happy for the setup so far.
I wish to improve the quality of my video calls (be it on MS Teams,
whatsapp, zoom). The connection is not great, with the sound and the
video not synchro and some lag. I noticed similar things during gaming.
I haven't had issues with Teams using an APU2 as a router.
Your router hardware is probably more capable than that.
One thing I did find to make a difference is to limit the outgoing
bandwidth to no more than what the router can sustain. I did this
by using "queue" statements that limit the total outgoing bandwidth.
I didn't bother with multiple queues for different services, just
one queue for the total outgoing connection.
See the QUEUEING section of pf.conf, particularly the DSL example,
though of course your max bandwidth is much higher.
I also prioritize ACKs.
