I just made a quick ping test:
Khadas VIM Pro (AP6255, directly connected to my 802.11ac wifi AP):
30 packets transmitted, 30 received, 0% packet loss, time 29057ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 2.263/13.614/20.336/4.583 ms
on my workstation (connected via ethernet to a router running LEDE,
which is also connected via wifi to my 802.11ac wifi AP):
30 packets transmitted, 30 received, 0% packet loss, time 29040ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1.040/1.405/5.977/0.862 ms
(distance between my Khadas VIM Pro and my AP vs the router running
LEDE vs my AP is roughly the same, less than 50cm difference in
distance, no additional walls etc.)
so the delay is definitely "higher" than with other devices, but an
average pin time of ~14ms still doesn't seem to cause any lags for me
