Both "problem"-places (different ISP's) _have_ a packet-shaping device
in (our) inernet pipe..... (sorry i do not have detail info about those
devices (yet))

And.. my own ISP has no such device (as far i know), and no problem.

So could it be "a" (evil) packetshaping device in combination with
timestamps ?
