I've been receiving short but frequent lag spikes in all online games. They happen every few minutes or so and lag me out for about 3-5 seconds. For example, if I'm playing Team Fortress 2 everything will freeze and I'll receive the connection problem message in the top right corner. It does the 30 second auto-disconnect countdown (like when servers crash or reboot) but since it doesn't last that long I'm back playing again within a few seconds.
When the lag disappears everything will happen at once as if it's catching up. It's particularly annoying in competitive games, since when the lag stops I'll either be dead, low on health or running into a corner somewhere.
