When I've encountered connectivity issues since shelter in place, it's always been because of the ISP choking on so many new people at home (I can see the speed drop or dns issues) - additionally, it likely doesn't matter if you're never more than 12 feet from your router, but often the router is the weak link in home wifi, and you can get nearly identical results by spending some $$$ on a non-isp-provided router.

All that said, it should be easy to test, and I would not expect a meaningful difference in your situation.
