Extreme Lag and Disconnecting This Morning

While I don't seem to actually be having internet connection issues, given that I can load websites just fine, the game seems to be acting as though my internet is cutting in and out. I've tried logging in several times this morning, and got a login timed out error once or twice, the other times after logging in I found I could not activate anything, I can press E which just turns grey in the prompt but nothing happens. I tried mounting and about a minute later after I'd given up and was running around on foot I finally mounted for a second and then unmounted because I'd tried pressing H a few times while nothing was happening and thought it was just my key sticking at first. Finally after managing to actually activate a crafting station it just froze up when I clicked deconstruct, I waited a while but although it took the item out of the menu, it didn't show me whether I'd gotten any materials out of it and everything on the side stayed greyed out so I couldn't deconstruct anything else. I exited that and was still able to go get new crafting writ quests, but it took ages between my clicking on things to it actually registering my selection. The thing is, movement itself wasn't glitchy like it usually is in crowded towns, it's like the game just was taking forever to process anything else besides movement. At one point I got booted off to the log in screen and after logging in again I found myself stuck in the bank as nothing happened when I activated the door and nothing happened when I tried traveling to a guild-mate, I couldn't even log-out because nothing happened when I pressed escape, but then a couple minutes later it sent me back to the log-in screen again, so I guess I give up for now. Anyone else having trouble this morning?

    I had something similar over the weekend. I would be 5-10 seconds in game and then my character would suddenly lag out with a ping spike of 999+ in game. It would remain this way until I get kicked out to the login screen, or it would suddenly come right for a split second and then lag out again. Resource monitor showed that my ping for eso was around 200 ms (which is the normal ping for the game), while in-game it was around 999+ and visibly lagging/rubberbanding. Now it seems to be fine again. All my other games were working normally over the weekend so I could not figure out whether it was my conncection or the game or something else on my PC. Oh well...

    I have the same problem as Marcus but the only difference is I'm playing on an XBOX ONE. It started two days ago for me after an update eso added. I can only play for 2 minutes before i lag my whole house off the internet then the internet comes back when the game lags out.
