    IPv6 vs IPv4 perhaps? Or just crappy routing somewhere?

    <5ms difference is fine. just pointing out that UK-->EastCoast is ~90-100ms, not >150ms

    different routing might explain the differences and large pings at times.

    Even goes through London. Now seriously, you are closer to London than I am.

    I'm going to test this through at work tomorrow and see what comes back from there, my ping is clearly substantially worse than yours from my home.

    interesting. v6 ping is 67ms

    Try and get a RamNode NL server and tunnel traffic through that. May work.

    Ah, never mind. RamNode has a worse ping than my ISP. I may just have the best ISP around then.

    Maybe. UK residential ISPs are all reasonably shit.

    My ISP always prefers IPv6 over IPv4 because the routing is usually a lot better for some reason. I've hardly ever seen it the other way around, with the exception of some IPv6 tunnels.

    Afraid not, no, I don't wish to reveal the PoP's IP. However, as you don't have IPv6, Wable aren't up for consideration anyway.

    I did a ping over HEs IPv6 from london:

    Reply   2602:ffd6:d0d:dead:beef:f00d:dead:feed  16  106ms   59

    It should be within the error margin and it is quite good taking into consideration it's Dallas and non-native. The jitter, on the other hand, is far from the IPv4 stability.

    Sorry 'bout that. They were out of Equinix in NY for several years...I guess they moved.

    @nekki what ping do you get to this IP in New Jersey?

    199.188.100.34

    Not that I would recommend the host but I'm from north UK on ADSL and I used to get much better ping results when we had VM cable (nevermind fibre)

    I get about 83-90ms to NJ depending on the host

    All residential Virgin Media connections are FTTC and the CMTS induces latency.

    Virgin Media routing is unpredictable. Tonight you could be seeing the best direct route possible, tomorrow morning you may see traffic being routed up and down the UK before it's passed off network.

    They have 2 DCs, one in Manchester and the other in Hemel Hempstead (~London). Both make use of Cogent and GTT transit but it's "load balanced" weirdly, so you'll only ever see one route or the other at a time and not a mix of the two.
