My internet Spikes up and down.

My internet connection usually runs on "excellent" speed, but for the past week, it has been down to "very good" and every 4-20 seconds it falls down to "low" connection, then goes back up to "very good".

This means I can surf the web, but doing tasks that require constant connection, like playing games, dont work.
If I load up a game, my ping will be 54 or so, then suddenly drop down to 230 along with my internet.
Or, when I examine my speed, it is 56 mbps, then drops down to 34 mbps, and it does this, about every 10 seconds for the WHOLE day.

Can you guys help?


Edit:
I have tried rebooting the internet and wifi and computer. all 3 dont work.
 
What type of router? Who type of Internet connection? Does it work using a LAN connection? Does the router have updated firmware? Using the latest WIFI driver?
 
I'd use something like the program InSSIDer to get an idea of wireless neighbor traffic.
