Here is a list to check into high pings are mostly do to resends

Interference: try different channels.
Hidden node issue: depending on # of clients, often the problem shows up around 10 or more clients, to correct use RTS/CTS... info is documented in the forum.
If only one client is affected, likely bad multi path: adjust location/height of client antenna
