South America on the other hand has poor connections and requires decent,legitimate internet and not bootlegged AOL dialup.
Network signals are electric impulses that need time to travel a given distance. The longer the distance, the longer the signal needs to reach its target. Additionally, the longer the distance is, the signal has to go through more gateways (called 'hops' in IT language). This will also increase the time it needs.
You can actually see this when you do a "tracert 8.8.8.8" in your command prompt in windows. It will show you the 'hops' your ping signal will go through and the time it needs to reach the Google DNS server.
Download and Upload speeds arn't all that matters in an internet connection bud.
Really reccomend you go look at austrailia you used as example of people with good internet that supposedly doesn't have issues with other regions, since apparently they would get around 200 ping to US east coast. I'm just saying there's a limit that "get bet internet" is an answer when the issue is the distance more than connection quality
