Here's my problem:

Lately my connection has been terrible on every online game of mine; Killzone 2, CoD4, CoD5 etc. When I go online on WaW or CoD4 it will show that I have 3 or 4 (full) bars but it will lag badly and give me connection interrupted frequently in every match. With Killzone; when I join a match it will just have "Host not available" for the entire match, and it'll lag when I shoot, but not really badly.

I noticed that my UPnP has changed, it used to say Unavailable but now it says Available (yes, i know UPnP is good for gaming) but I was wondering if that has effected anything. Also, I have noticed that when I do a connection test it everything will come through fine and I have a NAT type 2 but when it tests PlayStation Network it takes a lot longer than normal, a few minutes or so but I does eventually say Succeeded.

Any help would be very much appreciated by anyone, and I will give addition information if it is needed.

Why would that change anything to do with my connection status? Well, I just tried it and it didn't make a difference.

Contact your ISP? They probably have something to do with this, I haven't heard of this problwem occurring with anybody else.

Yeah, It's never happened to me before either, so It's strange.

Though, after a few days now the connection has gotten better but nothing dramatic.

Well, I'll contact my broadband provider later this week, I'll let you's know how things go.
