Short answer you can't
Long answer go wired and ping to a server near you.
Ping is a not a set number on other words it changes all the time. You need to do ping tests like 1000s of times to get a rough idea of the ping range you're going to get.
Also if your gaming online ping to a server that about 1000 miles or more away from you.
Do a ping test and see what the results are.
One thing i can say is ditch the wireless it should improve.

Or get a different and better router.

as much i like to believe that a good answer and advice it not :p
Getting better internet is next to impossible to do due to how the net works.
IF he owned the line or could own it direct to the users he wanted to connect to you would be right. But sadly the net is not like that. Traffic gets routed all around the place.
Also most ISPs are not setup to cope with online gaming.
