Quick Question:
  We just installed a T3 from our 7204 to a major backbone provider and
I'm seeing 20 ms between us and them when I ping right from our router to
theirs. I also see it consistanly for that hop on traceroutes to and from
us. That seems to be rather a lot of latency for that line. The thing that
bothers me is that it's a consistant 20 ms when the line isn't loaded. Any
thoughts?
