I just wanted to take a minute and explain that even though you have 10000000mbps Internet with only your console using Internet, while wired in, you could still be the lagging person. That number is obvious exaggeration, but expresses what I mean. What I mean is, just because your ISP has provisioned a connection that can move large amounts of data over a short period of time does not mean it does it consistently. What really matters is your average latency and jitter to the Internet through your ISP. If you want a good measurement of this, go to a site like speedtest.net on a device and browser that supports flash player and see what your latency and jitter measurements are. Think of it the Internet as a highway, and you ISP connection as your vehicle. My car and your car may be able to move the same number of people between two cities in the same amount of time, but my bus does it in one slow trip and your motorcycle does it in many super fast trips. The problem of lag, in the highway example above, is about what happens when you need to move a small amount of people but you only have a bus. It then takes longer to transport the small number of people by bus than by motorcycle, because the motorcycle has completed its low number of round trips before the bus has completed even one. Converting that to technical talk, if you have lots of small data packets, you would be better off with a connection that supports a lower throughput (mbps) with less distance to the Internet (latency) and less variation in packet transfer speed (jitter).
