Are these ping respone results is ideal for every one??
I have purchased Netgear R6700v3 recently. After installing the router I have found some issues. I pinged my wifi device IP from my host machine which is connected with wire from the router, found hu...
No this would not be ok. I assume you also tried pinging the router at 192.168.1.1 and got similar results. Even my Internet ping times using my iPhone to ping 8.8.8.8 is less then 30ms. On network more like 1 to 2. Definitely something wrong. Please detail all that you have done to try to fix this. Include firmware version number, not something like latest.
Dear myersw, Many thanks for your reply.
****Here is my Device Details:
Hardware Version R6700v3
Firmware Version V1.0.4.78_10.0.55
Wireless Settings (2.4GHz):
Channel: 11
Mode Up to 450 Mbps
Wireless Settings (5GHz):
Channel: 161
Mode Up to 1300 Mbps
Here is my ping result of 192.168.1.1 IP:

Packets: Sent = 8, Received = 8, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:

Looks like it is good.
Please note, after install i have updated the device with new Firmware which is currently have.
Please suggest how can i resolve this issue.
I am seeking for solution. Can any one please help me on this??
If any other info require please let me know.
Maybe helpful to know what the modem is in front of the router. Is it just a modem or a modem/router. If modem/router it could be causing you issues. Modem make and model info could be helpful.
Also, just to be clear, the PC is attached to the router via an Ethernet cable?
- Hi, thanks for reply.
It's a WiFi router.
Model: Netgear R6700 nightawk AC1750 smart WiFi router.
Yes, my PC is connected through wire from that router. It is a desktop PC with Windows 10.
I want to be sure I understand your problem?
You are pinging devices within your LAN? Correct?
=====
Host Machine IP: 192.168.1.11 (connected through wire from wifi device)
wifi device IP: 192.168.1.12 (connected through 5G wifi)
wifi device IP: 192.168.1.3 (connected through 2G wifi)
=====
From .11 to .12 (wired to router to wireless 5Ghz) you get Minimum = 60ms, Maximum = 250ms, Average = 161ms.
From .11 to .3 (wired to router to wireless 2.4Ghz you get Minimum = 50ms, Maximum = 458ms, Average = 270ms
Correct?
However, from .11 to .1 (wired to router) you get Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms
Correct?
So what is really missing now it time from wireless to the router, i.e. 192.168.1.12 or .3 to 192.168.1.1.
Although not certainly equal, I'm on an R8000 and my PC is AC speed connected via a Wireless USB adapter that connects at 867Mbps and when I ping the router I get this:

Quite fast.
I've got another PC with a similar USB AC adapter connected at 867Mbps as well and its results:

OK as well, probably the same 1+ms to get to the router on each device rounded up to 3ms?
Sooo...
Probably need PING from those devices to the router and each other to compare? Also WHAT are those devices, OS's running, how far from router, and dBm at the device for the SSID (Nighthawk app or some programs will show that).
Bottom line, it could be normal, you might have the SSID's on congested channels and need to be changed, or you have heavy interference (usually not the case of 5Ghz), as well as the CONNECTION SPEED of the devices.
Really appreciate your detail analysis. Many thanksHere is your answer.

Both SMART Phone is just 10 Meter away from Router. dBm showing between -35 dBm to -45 dBm
SSID Wireless Network (2.4GHz b/g/n)
Channel : 11
SSID Wireless Network (5GHz b/g/n)
Channel: 161
My Quesion is How "interference " happen whereas Both Phone is just 10 Meter away. About Connection speed, both device have latest android OS.
Another things is, how can i ping between two android device like in windows command. should i use any third party Apps??
Ping between two device which is connected through wire, ping result is best. Getting 1 ms to 2 ms.
But when i am trying to ping from wire connected device to wifi connected device, different ping result coming.
is this because of encryption/decryption of wifi router and this is normal or any issue with my device or setting.
"Both SMART Phone is just 10 Meter away from Router. dBm showing between -35 dBm to -45 dBm "
Should be OK, but -35dBm is better. However my Android also shows -45 dBm 5 feet away. Has more to do with the device than anything else problems (on Android Pie 9).
"My Quesion is How "interference " happen whereas Both Phone is just 10 Meter away."
Answer, it isn't always a distance thing with something inbetween, that would be more 'obstruction' that reduces the signal. Interference is like what you see snow on a TV set. Something is 'mixing' with the signal, and in this case, another Router broadcasting on the same channel. 2.4Ghz channels get hit 'harder', cordless phones and microwaves use those bands, except for newer model cordless phones that on the 6Ghz band.
"About Connection speed, both device have latest android OS."
I assume you mean Android Pie, some Cell providers are not always the fastest to test and rollout latest versions. I'm on 9.0 but there is a Q 10 out now but in Beta. So 'latest' really isn't that accurate, especially since I only got Pie for my T-Mobile phone in mid-July.
You CAN see the Connection Speed on the SETTINGS, NETWORK, WIFI, and select the one you are connected to. It will show the Signal Strength and the Link Speed (Connection Speed). Excellent and 866Mbps for me).
"Another things is, how can i ping between two android device like in windows command. should i use any third party Apps??"
Go to the Google store, search for PING NETWORK UTILITY and get PingTools Network Utility.
I used that to PING (Once open the 3 horizontal bars, click on them select PING and enter the router or any other device IP Address to PING it.
In my case, to the router, min 1 \ avg 5 \ max 13 \ mdev 6.7 ms. To my wireless PC, min 15 \ avg 17 \ max 19 \ mdev 2.1 ms. Note it is mdev, ms deviations, not average as on Windows.
"But when i am trying to ping from wire connected device to wifi connected device, different ping result coming.

I've got encryption as well, so it isn't that. Could very well be the device or channel interference. Get NETWORK ANALYZER from the Google Store and run it on the phones. To see 'who' is on your channels, select the WiFi signal. It will show all SSID's seen and strength. Then SWIPE LEFT to see the PLOT of SSID's on Channels and strengths. If you have a 5Ghz device is can see both SSID bands. On the upper right green bar, there are 2 radio type icons (2nd from right) beaming at each other. Click on that to change bands. Or just the one on the right to select list or graph... for the present band you are on.
Do you have other possible wireless devices? Some PC's have both wired and wireless capability, that you can check with as well?
