I'm playing an online game on a Chinese server, and I sometimes get disconnected when the VPN gets congested. When this happens, I have to restart the game and re-enter the map, while the rest of my group is probably wondering what I'm doing.

How do I explain to my group that I got disconnected from the server?

I've also seen people complain use 卡 to complain that they're lagging, but I guess it could just as well refer to being stuck. Is there a less ambiguous way to refer to network lag?

    卡 isn't ambiguous at all. – user3306356♦ May 30 '14 at 15:04
  • Btw, most gamers would understand what LAG means. – hrzhu May 31 '14 at 16:01

"掉线了“ means "I got disconnected" in Chinese,the pronunciation is "diao xian le", and "掉了” in short. As for "I'm lagging", you can say "网络很卡“，the pronunciation is "wang luo hen ka". Usually a Chinese guy can also easily get your meaning if you express it in "卡”.
