Game tends to lag up after a few hours of playing but if I reset my router it tends to give some respite however temporary it is.
Here's a traceroute I did to the server I play on to help shed anymore light on what's going on.

@johnpayne - I would recommend that you do a Wireshark capture to check that the traffic is being prioritised correctly.

It sounds like your line is experiencing high error rates, which in turn is leading to high retransmit rates, and thus high pings.
However, the most 'usual' explanation is high download rates - is your router wireless, and is it suitably secured?
