Normal Latency of a cable modem is ideally between 5 and 40 ms. For a DSL modem this is normally 10 to 70ms. For a dial-up modem, this is normally anywhere from 100 to 220ms. For a cellular link, this can be from 200 to 600 ms. For a T1, this is normally 0 to 10 ms.

Whereas,

TTL or Time to Live refers to how many routers your packet can go through before it expires. Usually a packet finds its home in less than 32 hops, but 64-128 is a good default
