[Starlink] Netgear wifi7 router is claiming 100x less latency

[David Fernández]

"x100 lower latency" sounds to me like they went from a few seconds to
dozens of ms.

2 or 3 s x100 lower are 20 or 30 ms.

[Starlink] Netgear wifi7 router is claiming 100x less latency

[Dave Taht]

I wonder where that number comes from?

https://www.engadget.com/netgears-first-wifi-7-router-offers-extra-low-latency-for-gaming-123037814.html

My joy in seeing this, is not in what the actual underlying facts may be,
but  "The Nighthawk RS700S also provides speeds up to 5Gbps." is the
*also* bit, in a smaller font.
