Which are the technologies to come which will reduce the internet connection lag?
Will the ISP be interested on that? Many server side services as OnLive (Gaming) and others which were not yet launched need no latency to run properly. I wish we had researchers working on that as well as ISP willing to really improved the connection quality, not only the bandwidth.
There is satellite , I have a 50 mbps broadband with a speed booster its lighting fast.I can run 4 computers at once with no delay.Are you using dial up? Perhaps its your provider.

It’s called broadband

Once the quality of cables increase enough such that ISPs are able to provide enough bandwidth for everyone, then there won’t be bottlenecks anymore and as such I doubt there will be many latency issues. I haven’t had any latency issues since my broadband was upgraded to 8Mbit. This should be plenty. Check out your internet on http://www.speedtest.net and http://www.pingtest.net to see the quality of your connection.

Most of the networking issues that you experience are probably due to limitations at your end of the connection. The answer to the last mile issues is probably PONs (passive optical networks). It will allow carriers to provide high-bandwidth with low latency and reasonable cost. The issue now is to get fiber out to the manhole. Most of the technology currently in place has to deal with legacy copper issues, but upgrading is a major expense.

I anticipate that you’re talking about future lag as internet traffic increases over time.
Specifically, hardware and software advances are at the heart of the development of a better system. Better internet protocols with less error are becoming standard, such as the new TCP/IP stack, and also the new International Space Internet protocol to eliminate wasted efforts in transmission.
On the hardware side, there’s some neat stuff being done with fiber optics in multi media mode, or coaxial cables with fiber optics built in to maximize bandwidth per cable.
