Re: I don't get it.... There is no possible way that 2 different ISP's used the same route and equipment to a remote location.
The extra latency over copper is due to the encoding used to mitigate line noise and such.
On Fast path DSL you wont lag more than about 1.5ms or so given an equal fiber run. |

What I DID say is the physical paths are of comparable distance. |

3 edits | To compare latency you would have to take the same route on comparable equipment.
The vast majority of the lag you see is certainly in either the Route or an overloaded or old piece of equipment (Router, CMTS, whatever...) |
