"RCN Cable vs Verizon DSL"
If anyone has RCN Cable or DSL from Verizon please post your ping test to www.zone.com. My RCN Cable pings on avg of 240ms to zone.com which is crap. I'm think of switching to Verizon DSL so I need to know if its worth it.

Open dos prompt and type at c:\>ping www.zone.com

I have Charter Communications cable service. By the way, can someone explain what this means? I have a very vague idea. Are my numbers good or bad?
