High ping from my laptop to any wireless network












2















this is my first time posting here as I have literally tried everything and this problem is still bugging me out to the limits, at this point, I am really desperate for help.



In abstract, pinging my default gateway (my router or any wireless network) takes a lot of time, only with wireless and only in my laptop, other devices are fixed to <=1ms while my laptop is normally 4 to 10ms with spikes to over ~1000ms each 15seconds or so, even times out sometimes.



ping 192.168.1.1 -t



It has come to my realization that this is probably a software issue, as I had a similar problem with an old laptop of mine and it was because I installed some Adblock software that messes with your DNS and your wireless adapter configurations.



What I have tried:




  • Uninstalling/Installing drivers and devices

  • Running windows with only important services

  • Uninstalling Winpcap/Npcap

  • Restoring to a week old restore point (At that time everything was working fine)

  • Disabling power saving mode

  • Disabling my AV

  • Running some dns flush and ip renew commands etc

  • Switching to 5GHz 801n and switching channels, even though the problem isn't router-related


What I'll be doing next is to boot into some live unix os to see if I have a failing device or it is really a software problem. Ill update this as soon as I do so.



Extra Information:





  • OS: Windows 10 latest update


  • Wireless Adapter: Realtek 8821AE Wireless LAN 802.11ac PCI-E NIC

  • What are your basic IP settings? (Local IP, DNS, Gateway). What is your network configuration (IP Range, Router address etc). Does the same thing happen when connected to the router via an ethernet cable.

    Periodical high ping time over wireless is absolutely normal. Especially when: you are not the only client of access point; there are another available wireless networks which interfere with your one; your AP is set to use dynamic channel selection; etc. Additionally - the answering to external ping is one of the functions wiht the least priority, so any node will answer only when it have no some another work (it is a reason why ping time to the far node can be lower - and more stable - than that to more nearby node - routing task on nearby node have close to the highest priority).

    It could also be a firmware/driver issue.

  • Thank you everyone for taking time to respond to my issue. @Stese Local IP: 192.168.1.105 DNS: Google ( 8.8.8.8 ) Gateway: 192.1.1.1 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 The range is 192.1.1.100 to 192.1.1.200

  • @Akina As I have stated before, I am the only one having this, pinging with 2 other devices is at 1ms fixed, mine is jumping all around and I am sure that it isn't the router, since connecting to a hotspot also reproduces the same problem. EDIT: While diagnosing the problem, I noticed that when the ping to the router is high, pinging another external host ( per example google ) is also high.
