Answer 2

Are you Hosting the Matches you play yourself? It doesn't matter how fast your connection speed is if you don't host the match, if you join some one else's created match and they have a slower speed you can experience lag.

Try Hosting your own matches and you should no longer have any lag, when I play Gears I usually host the match because not every one on Live has optimal ISP Speeds.

Forgot to mention that EA have there own servers so if you are experiencing lag it is most likely because they're servers can't handle so many users on line playing the same game at once. Any EA game you play on Live you actually connect to they're servers to play so there isn't much you can do as far as lag on dedicated servers.

Live on the other hand depends solely on the users/host ISP speed.
