Strange New lag lately :(

[BFM_Ben1]

Only in the last two days or so, i have begun to experience different lag to what i normally get. I now get the "dc box" every minute or so. Sometimes it is more frequent, sometimes i dont get it for 5 minutes or so. I see the box for a few seconds and when gameplay resumes i am miles away in the distance somehow. For every one else watching me while this happens i merely walk/drive forward in a straight line into a wall, over the edge etc. I also get this on cod on the xbox. Same varying frequency and exactly the same results.
          I havent done much to try and solve this, except for restarting the router twice, which made no diference at all. Any help is appreciated

Thanks,

i get the problem with the dc box and going miles off nav. now its not as frequent but it occurs now and again. i found it to be because im playing on wireless.
