Also having issues mainly with latency for online games.

ADSL and unlimited plan so it is shaped but I didn't start getting large ping spikes till that whole DNS issue happened.
Used to be constant 70-80ping on League (LoL) and now it randomly spikes to 200-500ping quite frequently and for a few minutes at a time

You're using WiFi, ain't you?

haha using WiFi for online gaming... I shudder at the thought. I ran a 15m ethernet cable under my house I was that adamant I wouldn't use Wifi
Even then I very very rarely had any lag beforehand even when on the unlimited plan
