Past week or so I've started to experience a lot of packet loss, making playing games online impossible. I've run a pathping and the results look like this;

Trace complete.
The packet loss seems to be at the router itself, so would that mean it needs replacing? I've tried restarting it and it makes no difference.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated :)
