Re: Works for me.... said by rebus9:On Road Runner, I'm 12 ms from their core in Tampa. On FIOS, I reach Tampa in 3 ms. I would suspect that has more to do with hops to the respective sites you are pinging than anything else. |

I'm speaking of latency reaching each provider's core in Tampa, from a neighborhood just outside of Tampa. This is where each provider aggregates their traffic for the region.
This makes for a reasonably fair comparison, because I am only comparing latency in the backhaul-- not latency to destinations reached via their transit. |
