I have been a customer for a good few months now and had no problems with lag when playing xbox live games
But the last two days it has been so laggy its been unplayable...
Its really quite annoying...
Can you check this out or is it being dealt with?
Thanks

what game is it your getting lag or is it all?
which gateway you on? try pcl-ag03 and see if the lag is still there. if it is try these steps.
check you havent gone over your usage limit and being capped at 128k.https://portal.plus.net/my.html?action=data_transfer_speed what does it report here.
can you do a tracert on you pc please.
type cmd in to the seach box on the start menu and command prompt will open.
then type tracert bbc.co.uk and paste the results here plz

dont worry about hop 1 to much as ive bein told before that some routers have a low priotiy of reporting back on tracerts.
but hop 2 does seem very high if your on fast path but if you on interleved then that ms result is normal.
can you please jump on to pcl-ag03 gateway and run tracert again.
sry didnt read your post fully as i was on windows 7 beta and havent got a firewall runing yet and posted quickly.
to see which gateway your on thats the hop 2 in the tracert or you can also use the usertools site but thats down this weekend.
if you do what i sent in the pm. log into router and keep diconnecting internet and reconnecting then run a tracert each time till hop 2 says pcl-ag03

bold bit of the tracert is the gateway.
the list of gateways and how they are performing can be found herehttp://www.plus.net/support/network_performance/broadband_packets_drop.shtml?supporta=networkpbroadb...
looking at the tracerts you have done iam pretty sure that your on interleved line. if you raise a ticket on your account requesting interleving to be turned off and put on fast path. you should get near to same as my pings. the request will take about 24 hours complete and same to turn back on.
i must add that being on fastpath turns error correction off at the bt exchange. so if your on a long noisey line or one recoreding high error counts being on fastpath may cause your line to be unstable.
iam on fast path on a 51db atten line so a gd distance from exchange and all runs o.k.
if you want abit of insurance that it will be o.k on your line you could post your line stats from your router. ie attention/ downstream sync/ snr and if your router records them your error counts to ie CRC/ HEC/ SF
also a quick check as you say this lag has only started recently and was fine before can you check that port 3074 udp/tcp 88 tcp are being forwarded right. ether by checking the uPNP on your router why logged into XBL to make sure the ports are being auto forwarded or by manualy setting the port forward rules up. this site tells you how to do it on your routerhttp://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm
dont worry if 88tcp is not listed on uPNP but 3074 port should most defo if your loged into XBL
sry for making this even longer post but are you using wireless or cable to connect the xbox to router?
As its not unknow for me to go through check lists like this to find the xbox is on wireless and then find they have moved the xbox to an enclosed cabient meaning the wireless signal gets degraded

See how my gaming go's now.... i am using wireless and have done for a few months without moving its position so that should be fine and i have full bars in the xbox 360 network settings
Think i will leave the fastpath thing as that sounds like potential trouble?
I will add you to XBL if thats ok?

you defo have intreleaving and you line should be o.k with it off but leave that till later.
i know you say you havent changed anything on the wireless setup but is it possable to test with a cable just to make sure you or maybe your neigoubours havent bought any new appliances that could be intrefering with the wireless signal and causing lag spikes.
if you do see improvment then a simple change of the channel that your router brodcasts the wireless on could fix it
