Default Ping Spiking ?

Been playing COD4 online for some time now and today my ping has started spiking all over the place fair enough 65-80 maybe not the best ping around but good enough for a good game but there are times now where it spikes to 400+ and comes up on screen as connection problem any ideas ?

Pongo555 is my online name too btw lol ;-)

Where are the servers based your going on? - on BF2142 on our clans server my ping is 22 but on COD 4 my ping is like 40-80 - never had any spikes unless someone with a silly ping of 999 is playing then we just kick him

CoD4 ping always seems higher than other FPS games for me. That said Im sure it has got more laggy recently esp on over 20 players. Am with Pipex but thats now Tiscali anyway
