Understood that T1 is not MPLS... The Reno site has a bonded T1 into the cloud. The Phoenix site has a 10mb ethernet handoff going directly to a fiber ring... This is about 1000 miles total one way distance.
Because the traffic gets into the cloud quickly but on the other end it jumps from 23 to 35/40ms on the last connection. Is this the T1 handoff, or something else? Do you have any similar connections? Do they perform about at that rate?? Thanks again.

Use tracert and pathping to see where your latency is being introduced. If it's with your carrier, have a chat with them at that point. However, in my personal opinion, your performance is pretty darn good. Regards, Michael B.

Some of the have pretty good latency (<10ms for Phoenix to Las Vegas - all fiber to the building) to not so good latency (40ms Phoenix ->Reno Nevada - Dual T1s in Reno). I am seeing similar latency (38ms) from Phoenix to San Jose (another dual T1 on the San Jose side, but a fiber connection to my Phoenix side. My Phoenix to Albuquerue (all fiber again) is about 15ms. This is about the same distance as to the San Jose - but over double the latency. Strict math (best case - line of site 2/3 speed of light calculations) say that my Reno line should be about 10ms. So, I double it for equipment and I still get 20ms. Less than half. My question is what do you folks see out there? Do you see a higher latency on a T1 line than a fiber to the building line by that much of a difference? Or, is there a routing issue that is creating delays? Any feed back you can give would be helpful.
