That could be from server lag, to old wiring, or maybe even outdated drivers.

Try getting the newest driver for your e-net card, If you're still laggy, do a trace route to see if there's a slow server between you and your game. In DOS, type tracert server.com, this'll tell you where the problem is if it's server lag.

If that don't work, maybe call your ISP and see how old your wiring is...assuming you have DSL. If you have cable, I think old cable lines can cause lag too...but I'm not sure.

A good place to measure your speed and tweak your setting for broadband is DSLReports
