Otherwise, a ping of 40 isn't bad at all. It's bad when it starts to creep past 100ms, maybe even past 300ms.
Not only that but if your bandwidth is saturated, either up or down, there's no way to get around the impact -- it's the nature of TCP/IP. For every packet sent, there's a wait until the ACK is received. If the network is too saturated for a quick response, all your network traffic will be slowed.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Latency-when-maxing-download-upload-20484380 Wed, 14 May 2008 22:25:57 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Latency-when-maxing-download-upload-20484180 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Latency-when-maxing-download-upload-20484180 Wed, 14 May 2008 21:53:57 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Latency-when-maxing-download-upload-20483584
Video showing what I mean, average ping to yahoo for example is 8-9ms when not maxed and in the 40s when maxed.
