Ditto.
DSL+PPPoE will unfortunately always have latency issues.
DSL is a lot more fragile than cable (in terms of interference).

I've seen that with Shaw 'normal' the latency is inversely proportional 
to the rate of upload and this disappeared with just switching to the 
Extreme service.  I would pay a little more if I could get more than 
1Mbps upstream though (high downstream is nice but only if your usage is 
one way).

P.S. I don't work for Shaw, nor MTS (at least not any more).
