Any way to reduce lag?

[AlfredTheGreat]

Me and my friend have been trying to play a MP game of Vic. We have all the latest patches installed, and he hosts. We both have cable connections, and only I experience the lag. I can't add factory workers, RGO workers, and other things lag too. Is this problem ever going to be fixed? Can it be fixed? Is there anything I can do to reduce the lag? I really don't understand why this problem persists even at the patch we are up to. Any advice will do if it exists. I just want to have a nice MP game of Victoria...

Some things that help:

-Slow down the speed
-Close down all other programs running in the background
-Make sure noone else is using yur internet connection for other purposes
-Disable the tiles.bmp

Could wireless internet have anything to do with the lag?

Yup. Max wireless speed is 50KB/s, and older protocols are slower.
