Question 1: How does the router know about user's high latency ? Question 2: How do you assure Internet stability where you start churning paths based on the latency of data plane ? Question 3: What you are after has effectively been solved many years ago .. it is called Optimized Edge Routing (OER) / Performace Routing (PFR) - I suggest you google for those terms. Regards, R.
