You are probably using homegroup for your networking. Homegroup can cause lags, slow downloads, and random disconnect on some systems. Test it for your self. Create a new network using the "workgroup" model and if your problems go away you can disable IPv6 and kill homegroup.

I know this isn't my thread but: why would HomeGroup cause the lag he is having, and why would WorkGroup be better?

that didnt seem to work still got the lag

When You Start Your server Go To taskmanager and set Priority of that Program to "Realtime"

This Will Reduce Some Lag
