Connection grinding to a halt since a week ago?!

I know there have been widespread packetloss issues lately, so i've kinda held off, thinking that this problem (now that it's apparently fixed) would just sort itself out... but noooooooo!

My connection is slowly grinding to a halt and i'm getting loads of packetloss, here are two pathpings i've just done (one to Google, and one to OpenDNS). By the looks of it, I get "hilarious" amounts of packet loss at the very first hop, then a generous sprinkling at each hop thereafter:

Any help/advice would be very much appreciated

Thanks
