Pings of around 100ms to your router do point to a local network problem. Tried restarting your router and testing over ethernet?

This looks like you're conducting these tests over WiFi due to your first hop having a large ping indicating problems with your WiFi and not with Spark itself.

Test over Ethernet, I guarantee it'll be fine.

Little slow for me as well, on the Shore too. Few pages timing out (tested over ethernet). Seems okay at the moment though.
