Ping over 400ms, but getting 1.8mb/s off a 2mb line.

So download speeds are fine but ping is not. 0% packet loss as far as I can tell. What could the problem possibly be?This only starts happening in the evenings and if I phone telkom during the day they can't see any problems, but come 8pm my net is unusable.

My guess is exchange congestion.
