Been having massive speed/connectivity issues this past week. its to the point where if someone is in the next room on a wireless watching Youtube or bbc iplayer, i cant even load a webpage with on a wired connection on my Pc. the connection was fine up until around a week ago.
i cant use skype or teamspeak while playing any game due to the connection either slowing to a crawl or just dropping out completely,
this has only started recently well around the last 7-10 days i've noticed it and its becoming a real pain. it gets to the point where even just on my desktop skype will go offline and struggle to reconnect with no call in progress.
due to my area my speeds are low anyways but it was never an issue when it was first installed i was able to game/skype/stream without a problem at all.
now the connection is slow for everyone in the house with no one being able to do anything online at the same time.
is there a issue somewhere that i haven't heard about?

That shouldn't happen.
Would you be able to run a quick Wireshark whilst this is happening so we can take a look at the traffic?

If you're trying to game and VoIP at the same time, they are both queued under Titanium so they will effectively be both fighting for the bandwidth.

I think the problem is, is that your throughput speeds are probably around the 1.9Mb mark, perhaps a little higher. When you're Gaming (Titanium) and using a VoIP service (Titanium) they are both fighting for the same bandwidth. As there isn't a lot of bandwidth to fight over as it is.
The game you're playing may just be using more bandwidth than other games you've used in the past and it's crept over the total amount of available bandwidth you've got available.

The line looks clear from this side but it's difficult to say with gaming as things change on a regular basis. Additionally, your connection, from the captures, looks to be fully utilised by VOiP and the Gaming side of things too.
