I get that to sometimes, and my rig is pretty stable. It's deff. server side not client.

Nah it's called 56k. :) You just have to learn to deal with it, and not go into big battles. I've had 5+ minutes of lag time before. :(

And I bet you're getting a different kind of lag than he is. :) What you get is just packet loss most likely. His is a combination of low bandwidth and packet loss...

Get DSL if you can. :)
