How do they solve the latency problems inherent to any internet

The round trip time to a well connected (read: 0% packet loss) server
in Israel from an Israeli ISP, where Israel here is defined as
"connected to the IIX", is under 50ms.</div></blockquote><div><br>On a 150kbit upload ADSL upload of a 1500 bytes packet takes about 85ms. To send out the VoIP packet would take another 85ms (on condition that you have a really good QoS). This causes latency of 85-170ms with jitter 85ms. The VoIP speech (SIP protocol) has a lot of skips and is unacceptable.<br>
