Ok so i just got this book hacking windows xp and it shows how to adjust your internet connection. You half to download a big file and while its downloading do a tracert on the website and then they say the highest ms is your latency well i dont quite understand it cause the highest i have is like 200 and something. Could someone please tell me what my latency is? Heres the results :

There is a much better command to use however to discover the latency. It will give you results that are much more accurate. This command is Pathping.
Here is a brief article on it and its use:
