In rural areas—yep, we’re talking about right here on Colorado’s Western Slope—you might not expect to have access to the same sort of advanced services people do in urban areas. And that doesn’t sit too well with us, especially when it comes to your internet. You’re streaming videos, uploading photos, sending emails, shopping, gaming, and surfing, just like the rest of the world. So, why would you settle for internet that can’t keep up?

Network latency is a delay in transit over a network path involving many nodes (computers and devices) that create a route. Latency is a constant factor in the ability for one device to reach another and can be introduced from a large variety of sources. Latency is typically measured in ms (milliseconds) and qualified with the use of a Traceroute or PING test to show moments of either high or low latency. Elevate’s subscriber network has very low latency (1-3 ms).
Jitter, it’s a dance! Well, not really, but still kind of. Jitter is the virtual pop-and-lock that goes on between your device and the device you are trying to receive information from. It is a break in consistency of data delivery. It’s like when your friend sends you a 6 part text message and you receive their texts out of order. If you receive texts in the order of 1,2,3,4,6,5 you might be able to decipher the message even though it is out of order. However, if your texts are received in the order of 2, 6, 3, 5, 1, 4, interpreting what was meant might be impossible.
Typically, Jitter is measured in milliseconds (ms) and general guidelines show that network latency under 100ms will satisfy most software and hardware thresholds for tolerance. It’s presence on a common internet speed test is entirely normal and in no way an indication of an actual problem.
Ping (Packet Internet Gopher….yes, really), is essentially a way to say “Hi” on a network. PING is a function of a larger protocol set called ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) and is used to send out a “Hello” and get a “Response” from any device or host that is reachable and responsive. The "Hello" is called an Echo and the Response is called an "Echo Reply". PING is one of the most common network troubleshooting tools and can directly identify issues that are related to network latency and throughput.
