Extreme ping for no reason

Hi Folks,

Recently came back to the game, played some great rounds on the server and some less great rounds (language, darker maps like Kharkov etc..)

Some days I am playing perfectly well and other days I load up I get extreme ping to the point where I get kicked after 15-20 seconds with 500 something ping. When I google it says perhaps its Onedrive backing up so I stopped those services/syncing and it persists. Other times I load up and can happily play 5 rounds with perfectly normal ping (range is around 15-30ms). It just seems extremely random and I can't figure out what it is.

I can play other games and sit on my community voice comms (discord and TS3) perfectly happily without any ping issues, watch youtube in high quality etc. My normal internet speeds are lowish for the UK, roughly 70mb download 20mb upload. Average speedtest ping of about 3-5ms to the nearest servers.

Any thoughts anybody? Cheers in advance
