I’m not the expert in the room, however I find the report lacking in one very important area. All these results on latencies, speed, etc., are categorized based on users “first mile access” technology, leqding the reader to believe the sole source of these numbrs is the “first mile” which of course it is not. They do not address the as important issues of the rest of what’s between “end-2-end”. Take a look at the gaming latency results, and you see games hosted in America have very high latencies for users in New Zealand … duhhhhhh! This can’t be news. While not trivial by any means, what could/should be done to make these data more useful for consumers is to figure out the effect of everything past the “first mile/first hop” and break it out separately. That way, a (moderately intelligent) user could make a reasonably informed cost-benefit analysis on which combination of first mile technology and back-end service provider to choose, assuming there were service providers that offered a choice of “first-mile’ access, or backhaul providers that served a variety of “first mile” providers. Guess we’re a few years away from that :-) RR -----Original Message----- From: Starlink [mailto:starlink-bounces@lists.bufferbloat.net] On Behalf Of Dave Taht via Starlink Sent: Wednesday, July 5, 2023 6:08 AM To: libreqos; Rpm; Dave Taht via Starlink Cc: Sam Crawford Subject: [Starlink] NZ latest latency report I do wish that it broke it out by provider, and recommended somehow to those suffering still, install a better device...
