I could be doing nothing at all and I start to lag like crazy. Usually, my ping is around 30-40, but when I start to spike, it goes up to 9000 ... this just started this week and I didn't change anything on the computer .. i was on a router when this started happening, so i decided to directly connect my computer to the modem to see if the same happens, and it does! what do i do now? i tried using the dr tcp thing and it seemed to make it even worse; my ping stayed at 9000 as soon as i tweaked the settings according to broadbandreports.com ... thanks!

It sounds like you might have unfiltered devices or bad line quality. Call your ISP and ask them to check the line db levels. Poor db will increase your latency.
