In that case, you can try to set it to another test URL or IP address, other than Google. This may be an internal URL, just as long as it can be used to ping and get an answer.

<cc_config>
<log_flags>
</log_flags>
<options>
<network_test_url>other URL</network_test_url>
</options>
</cc_config>

Or use the <dont_contact_ref_site>1</dont_contact_ref_site> option to suppress the ping traffic entirely. I've set that flag as default for years now - doesn't seem to cause BOINC any problems.
