IF Bad trace route = LAG
True. No matter how fast your internet is, if the connection to the server is bad, it will result to delay. I usually turn my firewall off or any anti-virus, just to make sure nothing comes in between my workstation to the server. And again, it won't guarantee good connection. So, just do a trace route from your workstation to the FR server (or use ping command in dos, and see how much packets I lost or received). Server IP address and ports are I think listed in the Trace Route zip 3K posted.
FYI: the FR server is not from Phil.
