I was talking with someone on B.NET and I lag ALOT and he asked questions to figure out my problem and then "diagnose" me with Bad Lag.

Bad Lag: Often caused in patients With weak or wireless internet connections. Renders them unable to play in games with more than 3 players at a time. Also lags alot in games.

Treatment: Wired Connection is the only cure known by me. I am also researching (AKA asking you guys) Other cures that are easy.

Effects: Causes the annoying response in capital letters "LAG" and may be followed by the opponent leaving the game within the first 2 minutes. Bad Lag syndrome severely limits the player in Micro capabilities due to the connection being raised to Extra High Latency and also due to skipping. Also causes a lack of decent games due to players leaving quickly and early in the game.

Side Effects: Side effects often include the following: Broken mouses, Smashed keyboards, Cracked Monitors, Damage to the throat, Dented Walls, Keyboard Related Scars, and General Loudness.

Interview with someone diagnosed with this syndrome.

Well it seriously screw up my mass gaming and has forced me to download BWAI 2.0 and just to play something similar to a game on ICCUP and I really don't know how to get my health back. It has destroyed my [Brood War] Life and I can no longer mass game. Please help me!

Find people to LAN with :O I dunno.

I hate playing in games with lag. I recently toughed a game with miserable lag out because it seemed to come and go. But it came more than it went, and the experience was miserable. If the problem were on my end, I would just wait till I got a computer/internet connection capable of running a 10 year old game, and not even pretend playing in lag is in any way fun.
LEGEND!! LEGEND!!

I like it when the lag makes SC turn based.

My Ping on Icc is between 500-1200, once I had even 62344 -.-

The reason is mobile broadband in a room where's almost no signal. I end up rushing like a dick, because longer games area pain the ass.

I suggest you try getting a better wireless adapter or moving the router to a better location. Make sure it's not on the ground and not too near a wall, that tends to fuck up the signal.
