As I said above, I will tell you a solution and fix it for the High Ping Issue. You can also try methods to lower your ping.

1. Bluetooth Interference:

Turn off your Bluetooth. If you are using Bluetooth Headphones You can try using WiFi headphones. Because Bluetooth uses 2.5Ghz and WiFi uses both 2.5Ghz and 5.0Ghz.

3. Background WiFi Data usage

Background Apps that use excessive WiFi data not good for your ping and gameplay also. You have to restrict this apps from using the WiFi background data.

4. Obstacles Between Router and Device

If there is an obstacle between you and router then there will be a high ping issue. Try to minimize the obstacles and blockage between you and your router.

5. WiFi band Setting

There are two types of WiFi bands 2.5GHz and 5.0GHz. 5.0ghz will provide you higher speed and less range. While 2.5Ghz will provide less speed and long-range coverage.

6. Other Electromagnetic Interference

Some devices like your Dish Settop box or Bluetooth speakers can cause this interference. If your router is placed near this device which emits electromagnetic radiations, then it can affect your ping.
