Any digitally based transmission system has latency.


But it is perfectly possible to compensate for that.


No it isn't.


Corse it is, that's what NTP does.


When Windows does its NTP time check, it checks the delays through the
network several times before actually setting your RTC - using an
offset to take care of the average network delay.
