Is this a modem connection? Perhaps there isn't sufficient bandwidth to
support this.
A couple friends of mine tried to use IP masq to connect directly to a
diablo2 game I was hosting. one of them would always get kicked because of
lag.
While starcraft doesn't suck up as much bandwidth as D2, it still may be
the problem. There could also be another bottleneck somewhere else between
you and battlenet, but it's more likely that it's your modem.
That may or may not be the problem.
namaste,
