Higher Ping
After setup I have a higher ping on speedtest and dsl reports... i went from 15ms to 40ms. Did I do something wrong or is this an issue?

Based on the fact that theres not much difference I expect it's down to ISP congestion, potentially worsened by peak times. If you do a test in non peak times is it as you expect?

The ping is consistent (morning, lunch, afternoon, night) and consistently higher. Meh, I'll just return the router by the end of the week if nothing changes, which I suspect it won't. Thanks for the time.
