Ping statistics for 10.0.0.1:
Packets: Sent = 413, Received = 413, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 5ms, Maximum = 25ms, Average = 8ms
[/CODE]

I've used a few wifi routers before, including some very cheap ones and never had ping times over 1ms, let alone 10+.
This is a concern for gaming.

Is this normal for the C7? Any advice?

Are you connecting to 2.4GHz or 5GHz band?
How about signal strength and link speed of wireless network connection? Did you try on different wireless clients?
Firmware of your C7 is up to date?

Maybe there exists some other device using the wireless environment.
Try to shift to another channel.
And you can try to PING www.google.com.
It is said that if the time value smaller than 35ms you will not feel the latency gaming.
