How do cable networks have more hops then DSL thats routing/network topology issue.

latency would be high ping response times…

Yeah, DSL networks tend to have better routing than cable networks, probably because of having less bandwidth. Adelphia/TW’s network is a mess. Run a traceroute/tracert/etc from any DSL connection and any Cable line and I guarantee you there will be less hops, usually less than half, on DSL compared to Cable.
