> Cable connections can also lag, so those who are using cable could also be the source of the lag. I have been using a 56k connection and have only had one laggy game since playing here (XWIS). Also, if the host computer is slow there will be lag. It would be nice if before we decided to play a game we would exchange connection info, unfortunately that would not work for quick match though, it's pretty much like rolling the dice.
Why not?
> I do agree with the statement about getting a fibre optics connection where possible, that would speed things up a little, but not alot. Perhaps those with cable connections who can't deal with playing a laggy game should start thier own server and web site for you all to play on. Poor Losers always find excuses for losing so you may as well blame a slow connection.
