I still stand by my opinion. You obviously can disagree. Below 100ms to Google is OK in my book.

I guess it all depends on what you are accustomed to seeing.
If my ping to google (8.8.8.8) suddenly jumped to being over 50ms consistently, I would raise an eyebrow at least.

Interesting that my ping to a sever in Des Moines is nearly double that to Google...

For HSI connections (DOCSIS or DSL), Google should never be more than 35 ms away in most cases:
