usually a bit eratic, first ping tends to be around 40ms, then they can range anywhere, but usually around 100-150ms, which should still give a mostly-smooth operation I would think. Certainly not enough to explain multiple seconds of delay sometimes... I'm going to plug the PC into a wired connection, and see how it works, maybe that will fix this issue.
