    Netgear router 50ms latency more than direct to modem.

    Appreciate you're feedback. I agree that DNS isn't normally considered a factor in ping results. However, there is a repeatable and recordable difference in the trace route based on the type of device connection being made with the modem. Consumer grade routers all had a consistent different...

    Netgear router 50ms latency more than direct to modem.

    I used an old 2011 mac mini I had laying around and bare metal installed Pfsense on it. Works very well so far. A core i5 with a samsung SSD is a bit overkill for a router. lol. repurposed my old netgear router into an AP for wireless. My pings are now back to normal or better. I can only...

    Netgear router 50ms latency more than direct to modem.

    This is great feedback. Thank You. I agree it is very interesting there is an extra hop in the "PC mode". I'm trying to gather up parts I need to make a PC router to test. I believe assigned DNS was identical in the 2 test modes. But I didn't think to record this information. I'll go back...

    Netgear router 50ms latency more than direct to modem.

    I've tracert one of google's IP's (not the domain name). It appears my ISP has implemented a routing policy that is treating my consumer routers differently than when I have a PC directly connected. This is most frustrating. There is an extra suddenlink hop on the PC direct compared to the...

    Netgear router 50ms latency more than direct to modem.

    I have tried ping ip addresses but haven't documented the results. I tried a Tplink router with the same "bad" results. Getting 50ms over the direct modem connection. It is frustrating that I'm not sure why this is happening but I agree, I don't believe the issue is in my router.

    Netgear router 50ms latency more than direct to modem.

    Google. Both pointed at 172.217.5.4. To be honest, I haven't duplicated this test to see the routes multiple times connected to modem and connected to router. ISP Google LLC Usage Type Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit Hostname(s) lga15s49-in-f4.1e100.net lga15s49-in-f4.1e100.net...

    Netgear router 50ms latency more than direct to modem.

    Recently I noticed an increase of about 50ms in ping to WAN addresses. Connected direct to a cable modem ping rates are normal for my geographic area. Going through the router, basic configuration, no Qos, etc., the latency is 50ms more. This just started happening. I have changed routers...
