What's your setup? The basic answer is that you reduce lag by increasing connection speed. There's really no way around that, because that's what lag is. Lag is inherent to any kind of remote connection but doesn't always have to be noticeable or game-ruining.
Are you streaming off your own hardware? Is your network running off a VPN? Is your client running off a VPN?
Increasing connection speed doesn’t always help.
If you are too far from something you will always have high latency, you just can’t beat the laws of physics.
What streaming service are you connecting to?
