Hi,
I'm not a big expert on networking, but it has struck me sometimes how the
numbers in traceroutes can be missleading.
For example, I just traced to opera.rednote.net - a machine I have an
account on in the states. ONe particular machine jumped out at me:
6 po1-7.ny-bb.013bk.net (212.150.234.14) 357.667 ms * *
and yet here is how the figures from the destination looked from the same
trace:
18 opera.rednote.net (74.53.93.34) 210.889 ms 214.657 ms 223.691 ms
And just to make sure, I did a ping test:
--- opera.rednote.net ping statistics ---
100 packets transmitted, 97 packets received, 3% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 209.8/219.6/262.2 ms
I have a SIP account on that machine also and have no problems.
In any case, I don't see why latency of 400+ ms should cause a problem. I
used to live in Australia and my then partner (now wife) and I used to talk
using Openphone (an H323 client) all the time with over 400 ms latency
(closer to 450). Your viewers should still be able to watch your videos,
so long as the packets all arrive.
Since you've paid for it already, perhaps try and see if you actually have
a problem. Or do you actually *have* a problem and you're trying to find a
cause?
Geoff.
