Re: Maybe america should stop tryiing to be the most wired.
EvDO can do probably 70 ms on the last mile. Not great but not bad either. It's just funky routing that adds a good bit t that. I've seen speed tests with 80ms to a given site, Google if I remember correctly. Again, this was on EvDO Rev. A.
s for WiSPs, many of them use 802.11-based systems. These systems tend not to do so well under heavy load (case in point: my WiSP...as it turns out 60+ customers on one radio = EPIC FAIL) however when not loaded you can get better latency than nterleaved dSL and maybe even cable in some cases.
sounds like you don't have a very well built network from your WISP.
And WiFi i wasn't confusing anyone. People should learn to use Cellular Networks when they say that or VZ/ATT/TM/Sprint. and Wireless for Wireless Networks- WISP.
There are also many WISPs that can support VoIP on their network as they deploy QOS and have built a network from the ground up and actually upgrade when needed.
