Is anyone else having horrible latency in Washington? Here's my pings to my router's default gateway:
--- 50.46.224.1 ping statistics ---
1002 packets transmitted, 985 packets received, 1.7% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 4.038/417.103/945.934/212.176 ms
Average of 417ms means VOIP is pretty much unusable. Problem seems to have started 3-4 days ago (about the time all the new FIOS customer came on from Verizon in California, Texas and Florida).
Technician is telling me I need a new router since I'm using a 7+ year oid Verizon Westell 9100 (A90-9100EM15-10). This doesn't make sense to me, but I guess I have to go through the motions.
