Lowerping runs their proxy server off a datacentre hence the reason why they achieve much better ping as compared to a direct connection from your home broadband.

Irrespective of what LP does, your final ping is ultimately affected by how Streamyx (or whatever other ISP you're on) is performing.

I'm quite anxious to see how Blizzard's attempt at disabling Nagle's Algorithm will affect overseas connection since on paper it should technically fix our "problem".
