Network insight

Middle East connectivity, measured route by route.

Cyprus is a useful location to evaluate for regional services. Our measurements show the routes you can inspect—not a promise that every nearby market has low latency.

Bars show the median of available probe-average RTTs per location. The range shows the lowest and highest probe averages. For two probes, the median is their arithmetic mean.

Measurement run

35/36 ping probes returned results · 559/560 packets received.

All 36 MTR traces reached the destination. The Nicosia BrainStorm Network trace recorded 2 of 16 destination responses missing (12.5%); its separate ping measurement received all 16 replies.

Warsaw, ZINET.NET.PL (AS41508): This probe is currently offline. Please try again later. This attempt has no latency result and is excluded from the median.

MTR destination loss: Nicosia, BrainStorm Network (AS136258) received 14/16 packets (12.5% loss). Ping and MTR are separate samples.

Cyprus combines probes in Limassol, Larnaca and Nicosia. The other selections are cities. Each result is a short observation from a specific network, not a guaranteed regional latency.

Run information · Structured results (JSON)

All 36 MTR traces reached the destination. The Nicosia BrainStorm Network trace recorded 2 of 16 destination responses missing (12.5%); its separate ping measurement received all 16 replies.

Start with measured paths.

The latest snapshot, 16 September 2026 at 07:06 UTC, includes Tel Aviv, Istanbul, Cairo, Riyadh and Dubai. Median probe-average RTTs range from 58.964 ms for Istanbul to 166.259 ms for Dubai. The original snapshot remains available in the run selector. Probe averages vary within a city, so inspect the individual networks, packet reception and collection limitations as well as the summary.

A nearby country can still have a longer route.

BGP routing, transit choices, peering and return paths influence round-trip time. Physical proximity does not guarantee a direct path. This sample does not establish which submarine cable carried the traffic, and it does not support claims of uniformly faster routing than Frankfurt, Athens or other hosting regions.

Use Cyprus where it fits your service.

For a multi-region SaaS product, compare user-to-server latency and server-to-database latency together. For a VPN service, test the client ISPs that will connect. For media or large transfers, measure sustained throughput as well as RTT. Place extra regions where a single location cannot meet your users’ needs.

Test reachability for VPN customers.

Commercial VPN hosting is supported subject to the Acceptable Use Policy. Reachability can change due to ISP routing or filtering outside the hosting provider’s control. A server in Cyprus does not guarantee access from a particular country, nor does it guarantee that every destination service will accept its IP address.

Compare using the same method.

Before selecting a region, test candidate servers from the same source networks and during the same period. Repeat the measurements and check the real application. Our Looking Glass is a starting point; it is not a substitute for testing from your customers’ connections.

What did the Tel Aviv probes measure?

In the 16 September 2026, 07:06 UTC run, average ping RTTs were 76.202 ms on Interhost, 89.142 ms on Datacamp and 104.199 ms on The Constant Company. All 48 packets were received. The previous verified snapshot remains available for comparison.

What did the Dubai probes measure?

In the 16 September 2026, 07:06 UTC run, average ping RTTs were 149.244 ms on LIGHT NODE, 166.259 ms on M247 and 178.399 ms on Emirates Integrated Telecommunications Company. M247 received 15 of 16 packets; the other two received all 16. These are short observations, not a guarantee for all UAE users.

Do the results prove a direct cable route?

No. Ping measures round-trip time and MTR provides responding router hops. They do not, on their own, identify the exact physical cable or the complete return path.
