With ISP supplied routers/switches/ap's - definitely.

Can you elaborate on this? I always figured if a router has a strong enough signal that's all that matters to get good functionality.

I think this is getting a bit confusing.
To begin with, for a 1GB + network, the cable comes first, it should preferably be cat-6 to avoid those losses that you say you have in speed. Especially if you have a 1GB fiber network with your ISP.
Forget using or sharing your internet through your computer with Wi-FI. The wi-fi in any home should be used for your mobile phone, tablet or some smart home device. For everything else, and especially if you are demanding, use wiring, whether you like it or not, that is the route to take.

Take your device access from your ISP and connect it directly to a very good router or switch, make sure you have something good, a 1GB switch may have 6 ports, but may not be able to hold 1GB per port at the same time .

I ask: where is your modem or device from your ISP? in the garage, basement? Where?
Where in the house is your computer / server and your TV?
After answering that, I can tell you what to do.

But my computer and TV are right next to each other, but the router is on the other side of the house so a .

OP said wired connection is unfortunately not possible. Obviously a wired connection is the best solution, but if this is not possible, alternatives are offered.

I also have my ISP access to the other side of the house, I use a pair of 1GB linksys switches to avoid loss with the wiring, one next to the ISP and the other next to my TV, and from there I distribute to two secondary wireless routers and other wired equipment.. So...
