How can I get such a bad latency in CS and good d/l and u/l. Its only happening at night, but everynight the last 4 nights. So its my ISP, but why is this even possible? Whats the problem?
Think of it this way--if you click to fire and it takes 3 seconds to register on the server, that's bad. If it takes 3 seconds for your command to start a download to register you don't even notice it once the data starts moving.
Ok so how do I call and complain to my cable provider? Do I say Im getting bad pings for games? They will tell me to run a speed test, which shows that Im doing just fine, but my latency is crap. So what do I do?

I did that the other night, its coming from them. But how do I explain it to them? Ill most likely have a moron that will be like, oh well it looks fine from this end. And just tell me some BS like usual.
Send them a traceroute log. It will show EXACTLY where the bottleneck is at. If it's within their network, you may bitch and moan about it.. but if it's outside of their network, you're out of luck.
