A very stupid hack that can work to "fix" this could be to buffer the h264 stream at the data center using a proxy before sending it to the real client, etc.

One of the big issues was latency.
Yes, but the real issue (IMO) is that something is causing an avalanche of some kind. You would much rather have a consistent 100ms increased latency for this application if it works much better for users with high loss, etc. Also, to be clear, this is basically just a memory cache. I doubt it would add any "real" latency like that.
The idea is that if the fancy system works well on connection A and works poorly on connection B, what are the differences and how can we modify the system so that A and B are the same from it's perspective.
