first thing you should check is your ISP.
I assume you're using Echotrader, right?
If so traceroute the quote server entered at "Config -> Network" and see how many hops it takes and what your average ping to the different routers is.
As the quote server does not ping reply you unfortunately cannot direct ping it.
If there are consistently ping times over 300ms the lags might occur due to your isp.
Are you on cable or dsl? if you have the possibility try another ISP.
