A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Define "good" ping. (Latency is the proper term)
Edit: Nvm, just saw your other comment. 50ms isn't bad.
30ms+ is high for cable in my experience. I was getting routinely in the high teens and low 20s.
On fiber I get less than 10ms.
That's all the way through the gateway using its wifi, too. I'm sure if I plugged in the ethernet cable and skipped the wifi it would shave off like 10ms.
Can't beat it for just $30 a month.
