<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">An oddball question - is anyone using services over Internet to Israel (VPN etc), and if so what is your round-trip latency? From a Telstra TID connection I’m getting around 400ms (Sydney, LA, New York, UK, France, Israel). I’m curious
if there’s a less-latent path on another provider/route (RDP sessions are painfully slow).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Using 30,000km as an estimate for the fibre distance, that gives a theoretical minimum latency of 300ms (0.5us/km * 30,000km * both directions). So there’s an additional 100ms of overhead there (OEO conversions probably – 30 hops in traceroute).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If that’s par for the course, I guess WAN acceleration is really the only option – I understand it’s a pretty long path. If anyone has any unique solutions to this problem I’d love to hear it.<o:p></o:p></p>
