I concur.  We have sites all over the US and it is about 80-100 ms from
coast to coast with both of our MPLS providers.  45 minutes away your
latency should be <5ms on a decent network.

I have some AT&T MPLS sites under a managed contract with latency averaging
75-85 ms without any load.  These sites are only 45 minutes away.  What is
considered normal/acceptable?

Coast-to-coast latency is around 60-65msec, so that's high.
