Ping is dependent on the distance to the server and the transmittance (probably not the right word  )of the components between you and them. Cable download speeds are often dependent on load in your area - so your connection tends to vary in speed, as do those between you and a server. I guess Im saying I doubt such a formula exists. Why do you ask? Perhaps my answer proves I was not the target audience for the question! -- JT |

well, my isp guy paid a friendly visit to my home yesterday (finally got the email working ok*crosses fingers*) and i was showing him my tracerts i had saved, he asked if i knew what my speeds were @ those times. which i did not run those tests, but will in the future--got me to wondering if the two paralleled each other, nothing more. ty  |
