Jio Fiber or Airtel Xtream or any other?

I have used Airtel and ACT in Chennai both have equally good pings to Singapore but Airtel has better pings to EU, at least in 2019. ACT bangalore also has same pings so basically they have same routing for both states I guess.

That could explain the high ping to EU, but still I wouldn't think it would be that much.

Anyone knows how Jio's routing is setup?
Can't get your answer. Please care to explain, why Airtel a Pan Indian ISP has higher pings in Kolkata than elsewhere?

Pings depend on physical distance from server, Kolkata is farther from Germany than Delhi.
Also depends on how the packets are routed. Since most of the routing happens via underwater cables, so I think the routing could be Kolkata -> Chennai -> Mumbai -> EU, which would make pings higher than say if it were routed over land via say Delhi.

Correct, I used physical distance concept as it is simpler for layman understanding.

Finally got Jio Fiber and my pings are actually better. I used to get around ~180 ms to Japanese servers, now I get ~130 ms. Also, around ~125 ms to EU. This is pretty awesome overall.
Where do you stay bro.?
