Other Nearby Countries

Similar effects (dramatic reduction in RTTs) have also been observed for other sites at countries in Africa.

For example on May 19th 2009, www.novagest.co.ao one of 4 sites PinGER monitors in Angola reduced the average RTT from about 750ms to 450ms and became much more stable (less jitter) in the process (see the time series in the figure below).

Similarly the average RTTs of both hosts that PingER monitors in Mozambique dropped from 780ms to about 360 ms in June 2007.

On the other hand hosts in Namibia (such as www.adsl.com.na seen below) seem to be switching between using a long RTT path from SLAC and a shorter one.

Angola: www.novagest.co.ao

Namibia: www.adsl.com.na
