Overwatch (SEA) server? Ping to SG is around 12ms.

You need to run on 5GHz or cable. Set router QOS settings for gaming. Ping to SYD is around 150ms as reported by in-game latency.

Cat5e is rated up to 1,000MBps for up to 30m at least? You should be fine on 100MBps

yea SEA server...u got 12ms in overwatch?? wow..with unifi?

do u by any chance play world of warcraft too? if so pls let me know the ping..

Oceanic server pings home around 150ms. World if you join a US raid around 300ms as the connection routes from SYD to US

However at times very high pings (seldom) that makes the game unplayable. Use WTFast which will hold pings in the 250ms range. Seldom is like couple of days every many months

Stock D-Link is on 2.4GHz which is prone to wifi interference plus wifi is weak.

Plus buffer bloat can be bad. The little box is pretty amazing considering its age.
