I just can't wrap my head around this one.
My brother is playing League of Legends, has 99 ping. I plug in my laptop, his ping immediately spikes to 1k then eventually hovers between 200-300ms.
At the same time, my download speed drops from 1.50 MBps to 40KBps.
Everything goes back to normal after I unplug it.

Try creating a custom power plan, go for all performance while plugged in.
In device manager, under your wireless card check to see if you have power management options. If you do turn them off. Check to see if you can replicate the problem.
This is probably caused by the non-oem charger.
If it's voltage/amperage are not up to spec for the design of the computer, it could be confusing the power management drivers.
If either of these work to stop this issue, get a oem charger for the laptop.

If it is signal interference look for the signal to noise ratio under the wireless settings. If the number of decibels changes when it's plugged in interference is the likely culprit.

Open a support ticket with HP. This is an issue with certain versions of Windows but the only way to put pressure on Microsoft is through a well respected partner, like HP. Plus, it looks like a hardware issue so HP will be motivated to blame Microsoft. The more tickets they receive about this issue the faster it will get resolved.
