This looks like a "have you tried turning it off and on again?" situation.
Unplug everything and disconnect all cables for at least thirty seconds.

If the problem persists, start swapping cables, and maybe dig up an old router. This will at least eliminate your own hardware as being the problem.
Then, start annoying your ISP.

I've reset modem and router

This is a relatively new router, like 3 months old iirc

This isn't a new thing, my connection has been spotty for months, and my isp is super obnoxious to deal with

I guess? It's my phone on the wifi doing a speed test

My guess is that the router is crap. Look up the specs online. You can either hound them until they give you a better one, or buy your own router

My phone is on the wifi, but my Xbox is wired and is having all kinds of network problems.

It's a newish router. The modem is 5 or 6 years old though so

ISP didn't force any hardware on us, just ran the cable and hooked it up.

My local EC is supposedly running their fiber in town now that they've finished their rural areas, but there's no official info on when it will be available.

Connect a PC or something directly to the modem, and run the speedtest again.

The only devices I have with ethernet ports are game consoles, and doing a network test doesn't give any useful information, just says "you're connected to the internet". Even asking for detailed stats just gives down/up and latency.

If any of them have a useful browser, do the speed test there.
