Unfortunately those sources don't give you a meaningful
indication as all too far away from each other. As I said
before a GPS to serial port is easiest for calibration.
Propagation delay is short compared to other hardware
factors which aren't easy to estimate. Either bring a
reference in or take your kit to where there's a better
reference or accept what you have now (which looks more
likely to be consistent than your network sources).
