Is it my connection, or something else?

<div class="IPBDescription">Major connection issues and rubberbanding</div>I know a bunch of people have been having issues with the memory leak effect on servers with build 198, but I am not sure if that's what is going on with me.
When I play, I get "Connection problems" or whatever the message is about once every few minutes. Sometimes my ping spikes up into the 300s, when it's normally 70-150. My fps will get jaggy, and sometimes there is persistent rubberbanding that doesn't go away the entire time I'm on the server.
I don't know if this is an issue with the build, my comp, or my connection. I ran a speedtest when this was happening one time and got 13mbps download/1mbs upload. I am playing over a wifi connection to a router in the next room.
The absolute worst case of it happened tonight, when my ping went up to 999 and stayed there for 10 minutes. It looked like I was running around in the game, but who knows what was actually happening. Eventually it froze and I manually disconnected. I took a screen shot with r_stats and net_stats. Can someone look at it and tell me what's going on?
Thanks.
