Slower by how much? Would 90ms be ok for you? There you have it! If you don't want to accidentally get used to 9ms, just add a traffic shaper on your end to slow down your network. You can't change the fact that during peak activity there are so many people who send so many packets and saturate the bandwidth in such a way that the current fair congestion protocols allocate you the bandwidth and latency profile you observe.

Oh, belive me, I have very decent QoS on my side. Using combination of HTB and sfq+pfifo for traffic. I can download/upload and jitter wont go more than 2ms. Problem is on ISP side. They seems to have over provisioned network that cannot handle peak loads. Oh well, here we go, everyone selling 300-1000Mbit connections on left and right. You also seems to confuse bandwith with ping (rtt). Thats not related. I would be happy with 10Mbit connection that have stable RTT.

  Latency and bandwidth are not completely unrelated. When you saturate the available bandwidth you simply cannot send more packets through the same channel so the only option is to queue (or drop and resend later), which means the packet will be delivered later. You seem to be describing a severe congestion at the ISP side due to your ISP not having enough bandwidth to handle their peak load. Surely, they could work smarter and selectively shape the traffic so that they drop the traffic you think is less important than yours but a) they may have crappy traffic shaping infrastructure b) they may not agree with your characterization of traffic priorities and they will rather not throttle video streaming or whatnot. EDIT: my point is that it's very hard to actually know what's the cause for the high latency unless you actually work for the ISP. Several causes can have the same observables
