Umm... What's going on with my cable?

Hey over the past 4 weeks, I have noticed my cable being TERRIBLE, but the weird thing is only at 5-11 PM (I know it's peak time and everything, but my nextdoor neighbors seem to have no problems like this)... I mean, as in terrible - Not able to download over 2kbs (Well it freezes anyways), so basically not able to download

My pings HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
-Servers I usually ping about 50 during the day, I'm lucky if I see a ping under 100 (Quake 3)
-On zone, NO PINGS under 200ms in a big gaming room (Rainbow Six)

Cable Company
-They say nothing is going on, all my local pings are fine... But when it comes off of the network "(Not their responsibility)" I mean... It's just a joke, I'll ping a server like www.yahoo.com about 30-40 during the day, at night about 2000 (If it doesn't time out)

Bandwidth Test
-DSL Reports I get 1200kbs down, 230kbs up... any way this is POSSIBLE?
-Cnet I get 1400kbs download

I really want to know what's going on .. If you can help I would greatly appreciate it
 
judging from you're bandwidth tests, looks pretty good.

try running traceroutes to see where the latency is coming from. in windows the command is "tracert -d x.x.x.x", the -d option prevents name lookups.
