  Is 20 bad or good? I feel like having lower ping than that is impossible in Canada

    It’s not great but it’s not terrible either.

    I would personally consider it bad if I got 20 ping on my personal desktop that’s using ethernet and the home is connected using fiber. I would expect something closer to 1-5 ms.

    That’ll depend on the server you’re connecting to to test your speed, and also if you’re using wifi.

    Shaw (in Western Canada) seems to route everything through Seattle so there’s like a built-in 20 millisecond delay for every destination.
