To prove the stability of this setup, I ran a concurrent stress test. I executed a 500-packet rapid-fire ping (`ping -i 0.2 -c 500 1.1.1.1`) while simultaneously running the Waveform Bufferbloat test.
The results are solid:
• **Waveform Grade:** A+ (+0ms/+0ms Active Latency)
• **Ping Jitter (Stddev):** A stunning **0.290 ms**
• **Max Ping Spike:** Only **7.005 ms**
Even when pushing 540+ Mbps and hammering the CPU with rapid pings, the RT-AX86U Pro with CPU balancing keeps the connection rock solid. This isn't just a baseline reading; it’s absolute proof of real-world stability.
