It does. I have a hard time believing Wi-Fi itself could cause such a large swing in latency, but perhaps all those back and forth round trips do add up? Is WiFi 6 known for major latency improvements? Or is this just related to less congestion?

It would be interesting to compare it to Ethernet usage of these devices.

Yes, WiFi 6 has a lot of major improvements to reduce latency.

Intel has a good write up here:
