I have 5 mbps cable internet connection, but when I do speed tests, it usually clocks around 1.5 mbps (download). So this is really bottom rung of the ladder stuff as internet connections go. (Comcast ftw...)
I have a new i7 computer.

And I almost never have any lag to speak of.

I read other threads of people complaining about lag. Don't merge servers because of lag. In game people talk about lag. When someone dies, it's because of lag (lol). I guess I just don't get it.

(Okay, during Mabar, if I was in the first instance or so of the dragon, yes, crippling lock-up lag.)

When I did experience anything I would think might be lag it was on my old computer when 10 fps was my average and I routinely saw 5 fps or lower. But that, of course, wasn't lag. My computer just sucked. Now with new computer, I have no issues.

So I just don't understand where all the lag is that a lot of people complain about.
