You may also want to ask your ISP if your line is setup in fast path or 
interleave (you want fastpath).

Google for details, but long story short fast path makes a hugh difference in 
latency, gamers have had this issue with DSL for years.

Perhaps. The question then is, how do I know for sure if the latency is
in the DSLAM, the ATM, or the first leg of the ISP network. After my
modem, the next IP address I can ping is the ISP router, but the packets
have to traverse the entire ATM and some of the ISP network first. 

If the latency is in the DSLAM, or the ATM then switching ISPs wont make
any difference.

Since ISPs never make any promises about quality (Unless you pay a lot
of money for a SLA) then should I be able to ask them to investigate
this? Will Bell even touch it? Somehow I see a switch to cable (at
significantly higher cost) in my future.
