Is my ISP the culprit here?
Living in the Pacific Northwest.
Sometimes when I play everything is fine, average of around 30-50ms. I'll be able to play for hours with no issue. Other times I'll get a ~200ms ping spike, reliably, every 2-3 seconds. Absolutely jarring - cannot play like that. After having success playing yesterday, I was interested in playing again this morning, and it was discouragingly back. I remembered your GGG latency post so I thought I'd finally try it. I welcome any advice to understanding and fixing my problem.

i wouldn't say it was your ISP, it looks like the problem occurs between you router and the next hop.
If turning off the router for a few minutes dose not fix it then you need to contact your ISP and hope their front line staff don't bullshit you. Ancestral Bond. It's a thing that does stuff. -Vipermagi
