Are you getting high latency issues?
Trying to play Battlefield 3 on 360 and at for the last few days it's been almost impossible to play with the amount of lag,rubber banding and disconnection due to latency issues,now I did think this issue lay with the EA servers BUT whilst trying to playing World Of Tanks the latency has almost quadrupled once again making it hard to play.

Checked online and there are no problems in my area (BH15)

@Tidgy on 10meg line



Taken at 13.56,no problem giving World of Tanks a go and the ms was about 50-70ms which is no problem,will give BF3 a go and see what happens.

The problem has only been around for about 2 weeks on and off and one of my mates has a similar issue with WOW.

Unfortunately that has always been my upload speed (or thereabouts),just given BF3 a blast and it was fine.
Will give them both a blast this evening (and speedtest) to see what is happening.
