If your ping is consistently around 125 or varies from say 25-200ms, then yes an external antenna can help narrow the variations to lower the average. However, if you check multiple times from multiple connection points and they all show around 125, then no.
Keep in mind though that ping is just a specific moment in time. Use waveform.com buffer bloat test and read their recommendations. Waveform sells external antennas and seem to have very good customer reviews.
