N66R increases ping ~5ms over IPV4

Hey guys, I'm a little baffled by this. My N66R router has been increasing my ping by 5 ms over ipv4. Directly connected to my modem I get an 18ms ping to comcast's server over IPV4/6. Directly connected to my router over ethernet, it increases ping to 23ms, while IPV6 still achieves 18ms. I know it's not a big deal, but I'm a hardcore gamer and every millisecond counts. Plus I'm wondering why my ping over IPV6 remains the same as if I was directly connected to my modem.

I've tried changing the ethernet cables
Done factory resets, and changed firmware versions to see if it changed.
Currently on Merlin's 370.40 firmware
 
I don't use Merlin's fw, but have you tried if disabling firewall in your N66R makes any difference.
