See: »DSL FAQ »Latency versus Bandwidth - What is it?
There are various options that DSL providers can implement that can affect latency.
The source of contention with Qwest DSL is that they implement interleave on all of their ADSL lines with no option to modify it. Interleave is a way of correcting for noise induced errors on a DSL circuit. The problem is that interleave adds latency to the connection, which generally is bad for games and (maybe) VOIP. -- Save the whales. Collect the whole set. |
