He<br /> will also be giving a presentation on “How to REALLY fix your lag”, Friday 13:00.</p> <p><strong>The talk is about how</strong> “… Modern home gateways and routers are<br /> designed to work with peak theoretical bandwidth – and not the<br /> bandwidth you actually get. The bandwidth increases we have had in the<br /> last decade have cost the low latency gamers really need. There are a<br /> variety of methods – some newly developed – and others in the pipeline<br /> – to achieve low latency in todays overbuffered, bufferbloated, world,<br /> and *really fix your lag*….”</p> <p><a href=CableLabs_Bufferbloat
