Default Internet Laggy in evenings on vm 20mb haxorware modem

Hi guys

i have 20mb on my flashed modem and it works fine during most of the day and get good speeds.

however when it comes to about 6pm when its really busy i get really crap speeds and it makes it unbearable to play cod mw 2 on 360 of a night on xbox live.

i get like a yellow bar or sometimes red bar when playing cod mw2 in the evenings, even when i go to play fifa 10 its laggy as well.


although with my subbed 20mb downstairs its completely fine and gets like 15mb down in the evening and is not laggy.


my flashed modem is going through a netgear router and then from the router to my xbox 360 its connected by ethernet.

what i cant understand is how can i get really crap speeds of a night on my flashed modem, but on my subbed modem its fine,

any ideas

thanks

remember that when the original mac owner gets capped, you get capped.
