So not sure if I am overthinking it. I am setting up my new RT router today and I have had some weird issues with it dropping pings randomly. I did a few tests with a PC (Wired) and iPhone. Doing a speed test while the constant ping is running I am getting high response times mostly during the upload. Download I may see a single ping higher than 1ms, when the download starts it spikes to 100+ ms easy.
So to see if it was just my PC, I left the ping running and did the same thing from my iPhone. Once the upload starts it jumps to 100ms pings to the router and upwards of 300ms.
After seeing some weird issues all night with this thing I am curious if that's just the nature of how taxing uploading is on a router or maybe I am overthinking it. I think the thing that bothers me most was some of the wifi connectivity issues I was having and some times the router would not respond and would start dropping pings but it's uptime and logs don't show any break in service.
Am I overthinking this or could there be something I am missing with this Router?
