Findings
TP Link TP-SG1008P switch
TP-SG1008P is broken. Spamming PAUSE frames from a device behind this switch causes the entire network (or at least everything connected through this switch) to go down within about a minute. Maybe the switch has a single buffer and as it can't send to our device (PAUSE), it also can't send to any other device (head-of-line blocking essentially) and so everything breaks down.
Netgear R6220 router
R6220 (up to date firmware V1.1.0.114_1.0.1) is broken. Spamming PAUSE frames from a device directly connected to this router's switch causes connectivity on all devices on the home network to fail within about a minute.
