Have Australia's outbound links improved much? Between Telstra and the latency connecting to the US, I thought that they had sub-par internet.
But I don't live there, so maybe I've been misinformed.
- Nick_C 14y agoIt's not too bad. There are a couple of pipes and routes, not all go through Telstra. I usually get about 225 ms pings between west coast Aust to west coast US (~9,500 miles). It's fine for regular internet including downloads, but gamers don't like it (I guess much of that latency is just down to plain old distance rather than bandwidth). We also have good pipes to the main POPs in Asia.
