question for anyone who might know....

i just started my high speed service with cable, but the lag i get when i
ping sites from my computer is around 60ms, when i test this on xbox live,
(from dashboard...settings-connection-connect-after it tells you you're
connected press y on your controller and you get various connection info;
packets sent, packets lost, stuff like that and your lag, which for me reads
around 111 ms.
just curious if anyone might know why the lag on my xbox is greater than
what i get on my computer, and if i can lower this somehow.
the lower your lag, the easier it is to ensure the immediate death of those
that you shoot at.

probably depends on if your pinging the same server on your pc as to what
the xbox pings (M$ Seattle campus)....
