Geir,

I typically see an offset within 0.2 milliseconds using a direct 
connection:

  http://www.satsignal.eu/mrtg/feenix_ntp_2.html

With USB I would see within about 0.5 milliseconds.

Both are much better than an Internet-based time source.

Your Haicom has an offset of nearly 0.5s, suggesting that you might be 
using the wrong edge of the PPS signal.

Cheers,
David
