-  crossclient 
-  To start a new player over the network type:

- 4.5 Why is everything so slow or why am I lagging so badly?
- Make sure your character is _not_ encumbered or heavily burdended. 
- Check your movement speed (4th line down in the client stat area), it shows up as Speed: and you want those numbers to be high (greater then 1.0)
- Check your Strength score and make sure you haven't lost any stats from death or monster attacks
- If you are still lagging and if no one else is lagging, then start troubleshooting your network connection
