Hey,
Switched to FIOS a few months ago but was just curious what ping times were on Optimum since I forget. More out of pure curiousity than anything else. Mine is a pretty solid 10 using pingtest.net on a wired connection.
Unsolicited Opinion: VZ vs Optimum
Switched mostly because of cost and would say that would be the only real benefit of doing so (and which one cost more really depends on your package) unless you need their higher bandwidth options. Speeds are a little bit more stable than with Optimum and have a bit more overhead, but honestly Optimum speeds were never that bad (especially in the last few years). That benefit is somewhat negated by the fact that Netflix is often slow because of peering issues.
