I don't live in Australia, but I do have a latency related problem so I thought I'd try my luck here.

I get a pretty consistent 50ms ping according to Blizzard's latency bar in outdoor zones, and the number from Quartz cast bar is around 100 or less, which is what I expect since I think Quartz measures round trip.
But in instances, I still get the same ping according to Blizzard's UI, but Quartz shots up to 200-300ms, and there's a noticable difference in responsiveness.

Are the instance servers not in the same location as the world server? Or the instance servers tend to be slower or heavier loaded?
