NPC lag everyone gets, this is again not a connection issue but a CPU/RAM issue.
lag does sometimes get affected by dial-up though. When i used to play C&C generals online a lot i still got lag even though i was playing with 4 people who all had very fast comps (including me) and the host had a 2mb ADSL connection.
