Network latencies between opposite ends of the Earth

13 This is just out of curiosity. I'm currently in South-east asia, and when I pinged domains such as bbc.co.uk and google.com (in California), I get latencies of around 5ms as below: 64 bytes from 151.101.192.81: icmp_seq=0 ttl=55 time=2.940 ms 64 bytes from 151.101.192.81: icmp_seq=1 ttl=55 time=3.785 ms 64 bytes from 151.101.192.81: icmp_seq=2 ttl=55 time=6.299 ms 64 bytes from 151.101.192.81: icmp_seq=3 ttl=55 time=4.065 ms 64 bytes from 151.101.192.81: icmp_seq=4 ttl=55 time=4.231 ms I'd expect latencies of at least 50ms instead given the geo distance. What's going on behind the scenes? Also is the traffic via trans-ocean fibre optics? network latency share | improve this questio
