Insane lag on BF2

Lately, I've been getting huge amounts of in BF2 (easily upwards of 600). Before, it was almost always below 100 on most servers. Is there something I can do to find out whats going on? I'm running on a 512K DSL line, if that helps.

Check your ram before going ingame to make sure you don't have a memory leak somewhere.

Run anti-virus to make sure you don't have a phisling program sucking up bandwidth.

Something I've noticed over the last week is that recently I can log onto servers and normally have a good ping, but every once in a while (and usually when it matters) I get horrible lag. Like I'm anti-tank, I aim and fire and lag so that I miss. Or I'm flying a heli and then get hit with a lag spike and suddenly am on my side and heading for a hill. Hell, sometimes I'm just walking along and all of a sudden lag horribly.
