GPL Online problems

Since a couple of weeks I have big online problems. There are only a
couple of races with a ping lower than 200, most races have pings
around 500-600, and some races have a ping of even more than 1000!

I have a cable connection (Chello) and my normal internet connection
is absolutely superb. When I download something from the web, I often
get a transfer speed between 150-200k!

I don;t think the problems are due to my cable provider, since I
switched from provider a couple of weeks ago.
Other online games (Quake 3, Unreal Tournament) have superb pings
(lower than 100).

Any idea what can cause these ridiculous low pings in VROC?
Any help would be very welcome, I allready missed a couple of league
races because of this problem...

Have u tried a trace route Andre?

Your new isp could be taking the long way, where as your old one was
using a shorter route.
