Connection lag is a lag that depends on your internet connection, you can still encounter lag even you have a high speed internet connection. Because lag means, the respond of the server to your internet connection.

For example
You are playing mobile legends or dota2, while you're in game, you are requesting to the server to move your character and uploading the data then downloading the new response from the server.

Another example
The response from the server depends on how far your server is. You are playing dota2 from Philippines and your server is USA. You can suffer a high ping because the server is too far away from your ISP (Internet Service Provider).


You can stop a lag by reducing the amount of data that you're currently using. Do not download, upload and do not use browser or other applications that can ruin your internet connection. These kind of applications will disturb the connection between your game server to your ISP.
