How can you avoid lag when hosting an online games?

When i’m hosting online games for 3-4 player on various games, everyone has a very high ping, and has very bad lag…when i play in someone elses server, everything is fine.

Who here has suggestions as to improve my computer for better online video game hosting?

    its either a either net cord that might be twist ed on the inside or if you have wireless, maybe there is alot of stuff in the way from you and your router. or if u have a crappy router then getting a new one would fix that. the best is linksys. which is like 60-80 bucks

    try buying a wireless router that supports online gameplay…
    dont get routers that say "G" on it, its not going to give you as much power as you want it to. you may want to go with a "N" version or a "N2" version that supports enhanced online play
