Slow Updating Cursor on Server

I notice that the onscreen cursor lags behind the mouse when I'm running 
my local Win2K machine that has been connected to by a VNC viewer. The 
local machine is running RealVNC Server, and the remote is running 
RealVNC viewer. Here, at the local (server) end, I have to do a lot of 
waiting for the onscreen cursor to catch up my mouse movement -- it's 
very jerky. As soon as the viewer disconnects behavior returns to 
normal. The viewer is located on the other side of the Internet through 
two routers and two cable modems.

How can I speed up the local (server) machine's onscreen updates?
