You should invest in some better wifi gear, it sounds like!

On a Unifi nano hd, with moderate signal, my latency only goes up 1ms.

Getting ~3.5 ms on wifi to 1.1.1.1, ~2.5ms ethernet

That's impressive. My AT&T wifi router caps bandwidth at 300mb/s (instead of 1gbs on ethernet) and add 10-20 ms to latency. And this is standing next to it and using 5ghz.
Man, wish I could ever get pings this low - the link from my VDSL2 model to the local CenturyLink CO alone is 8-15ms depending on the day.

Sucks that VDSL2 no longer supports fastpath, not that I could use it on an ADSL line due to bonding anyway :/

Out of curiosity, what is your complete Unifi / network setup?
