Average latency?

I had had Cox for 13 years now including 1 Gbps the last couple and thought my latency was ok, but heard recently it could/should be lower.  My latency averages around ~34ms, but then was told it could be less than 20ms or even 10ms (?).  My download and upload speeds are good.  Latency is ~34 ms both going straight from cable modem to a computer or using a wireless router (802.11ax).  The coax wiring all appears ok.

Thanks

Hi, jk891, between 20-40ms is considered good.

Thanks.  I think now the person that told me that was mistaken and just thinking about latency on your local network.  Yeah, on my WAN, its just 0.580ms to another device.  I just checked my internet speed using my MacBook Pro connected directly into my router by ethernet and its ~950Mbps at 23ms.  It'll vary anyway depending on location, time of day, etc.  Its all good!  :-)
