The latency is more due to the protocol used to communicate with the towers, the towers routing to the network-ops-center (NOC), and the lag typically associated with two-way radio communications, which is what this is. There is SO much error-correcting going on at the tower, and then at the next tower, then the next tower, etc that you probably won't ever see <300ms ping even if you were close to the tower. Also, the IPs might be registered to the northern territories, but that doesn't neccesarily mean its routing to the northern territories.
Kieren: that post was completely unhelpful to him. Any reasons WHY he shouldn't?
