Ah, random rubber banding? I had this, tried everything but solved it by dropping the wireless connection and using power line (ethernet cable was impractical).
Internet was blisteringly fast in normal use and the problem was only noticeable in online gaming. I suspect the problem was an aerial cable behind the TV not being plugged in and flooding the room with electrical interference, but having moved house I can't confirm that. Your problem could be anything but the easy way to check is to switch WiFi off on your router then connect your computer up using an Ethernet cable, then game away and see if it starts rubber banding.

Directly connect to your modem bypassing the router. If the issue still persists it is on the ISP:
Do some speed tests on speedtest.net on low traffic times (morning), and high traffic times (nighttime around 8pm, weekends, etc). Compare them, save them and send to your ISP. VERY OFTEN ISP's dont have enough drop points for certain areas and try to get away with not adding more (UNTIL SOMEONE COMPLAINS). I have a feeling this is what it is, I have seen this multiple times with people.

Usually you have a modem and a router, they are separate, I am assuming you have one of the all-in-one models then. You need to present your ISP with evidence of your slow / fluctuating speeds. Presenting them with speedtest information is how you do that. "Replacing your cables" is not an answer.
