Traceroute/networking help

OK, I'm not too good with networking in general. For the past couple of days I've getting nasty lag on my cable. Pinging Google, Yahoo, etc. I'm getting in excess of 260ms with cable (usually ping around 75ms or so). I don't think the problem is on my end, nothing extra is accessing the internet on my comp and I disconnected my stepmom's to make sure there - still bad ping. So, I did a traceroute to Google:

So, what exactly does this tell me? Is the problem on my end, is it a provider problem, or what? Thanks in advance

It would help if you didn't put in the "-d" flag so we could figure out what the IP addresses corresponded to. But 12.244.73.138 looks like your bottleneck.

Call your provider and see if they have a condition in your area, chances are that is the problem.
