Fair enough. I wish I could find that post they made about the latency issues but it is now long buried in the forums. Thing is, its not happening for everyone so I don't think its necessarily a server issue thing. I used to have the problem but after a few patches, its all but gone. While there may still be something with the servers in part I think there are other factors in play.

Regardless I think its rather rude and ignorant of some people and the posts they make about it. (This post seems to be quite reasonable though, Kudos OP.) The way they berate SE and say they are stupid and lazy and arent doing anything etc etc. Yes you have a legitimate concern but do you really need to be so rude about it? Personally if you are going to throw a temper tantrum to try and get what you want then I would be more inclined to do the exact opposite until a more civil tone was taken. Maybe thats just me, the internet generation sounds like a spoiled child screaming for a candy in a supermarket.

As an example of what I mean.

Well, where I live Fios has crazy high latency, I suspect the reason for that is because verizon has patched it in without any complete runs, (e.g. they are still upgrading sections of the network to fiber) and it's going from fiber to copper to fiber to copper etc etc etc.

Cable isn't much better latency wise here, well over 200ms to montreal, Dsl on the other hand is like 50 on avg.

Something I know the helped me a HUGE amount on my cable was this....

I called comcast and told them to put my SMS XFinity modem in Bridged mode. What this does is disable it's built in router entirely, turning it into a normal cable modem. Then you can run your own router to it and I went with a netgear from radioshack. My latency wen't down 50% and my connection is 30% faster and my wifi is 500% more reliable. Leased modems are crappy.
