Trouble is, my ping is all over the show. I'll select a server with a good ping of around 50, play for 5 minutes and then my ping will rocket up to 800 at times.
I have seen an old post on this and you suggested changing the MTU, what is that and how do I do it?
I've just done a trace route if thats of any use, and that seems erratic to me.
Tracing route to bbc.co.uk [212.58.224.138]
over a maximum of 30 hops:
1 97 ms 99 ms 99 ms dsldevice.lan [192.168.1.254]
2 34 ms 35 ms 33 ms lo0-plusnet.pcl-ag03.plus.net [195.166.128.1
3 35 ms 34 ms 34 ms gi1-6-703.pcl-gw01.plus.net [84.92.0.181]
4 33 ms 33 ms 33 ms te2-1.pcl-gw02.plus.net [212.159.1.114]
5 33 ms 33 ms 34 ms te2-2.thn-gw2.plus.net [212.159.0.190]
6 141 ms 129 ms 34 ms rt0.thdo.bbc.co.uk [212.58.239.25]
7 35 ms 35 ms 35 ms 212.58.238.149
8 34 ms 33 ms 33 ms virtual-vip.thdo.bbc.co.uk [212.58.224.138]
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

They either need to sort it out or they don't really want gamers to play on their ISP - even at £20 a month
Don't ask customer service, they say the answer is to drop connection and re-connect.
Like you're gonna route me via another ISP?

Here is a log of this evenings activity. Restarted router at 22.10 ish. Only one spike so far after.
Those spikes were during a game = unplayable. You cant expect us to restart our router every time this happens!
