Those are several tests I did. Two a couple of days ago, four today. The server is n. 1727 (GR Net)
@jvnadr don't get me wrong, I didn't say you made a mistake
There's probably something wrong with SpeedTest.net's latency calculation.
Fact is: USA <-> EU in 20ms is not possible. Light doesn't travel that fast

@George_Fusioned Oh, no, I didn't insulted!! After all, I saw the figures and was thinking about the same thing, how is this possible , there must be a mistake in the script or service. I posted the speeds not for ping put for download and upload speed that were pretty good. And I was asking the other guys what could be wrong in the speedtest.net script. After all, it is a simple ping, how could this calculated so wrong? It is just odd...
BTW, if I remember well, you are from Rhodes? I'm from the other part of GR, Corfu!
Ela re patrida!
Yes, I'm from Rhodes.
Must be those new quantum entanglement connections they're testing... bit slow for a 5000 mile journey though, should be <1ms.
The simple explanation is that the so called 'Greek' server this is being tested against is not in Greece at all.
Get a traceroute to the server IP (a tcpdump while the test runs will tell you), and it's probably gonna terminate in the next state or something for 20ms.
Then it's probably buggy calculation on speedtest's part, report it to them.
