Ping question

[Gordon2M]

I have recently purchased an Asus AX5400 router and I have some performance concerns. This replace an old Asus N66U router. I have a nominal 25/10 service from my ISP (Teksavvy in Canada). What I am observing when using a Windows 11 laptop (Dell 15 5510) with a Wireless card update (to AX210 from the original AX201)

If I ping several of the sites in the router Tools page, I see ping times of 20-21ms from most remote sites. If I ping using Powershell on the laptop, ping times are double or more of what I am seeing when pinging from within the router Tools page. Is this to be expected and, if so why the large difference?

Thank you, Gordon

Perhaps the 'small' difference is due to the router being wired and the laptop behind the router processing and being wireless... plus it's a laptop... maybe its snoozing somewhere.
