Rubberband Lag Problem on TF2

So around Friday, whenever I entered an online server I would begin to experience extreme amounts of rubberband lag. I tried some simple quick-fixes such as re-installing TF2, verifying the integrity of the game's cache, and refreshing my steam files. My internet has been fine the last couple of days, and I've been able to run several other online steam games perfectly fine, and browse the internet without a problem. I am extremely clueless on the situation I am being faced with and would greatly appreciate any insight anyone could offer. (Pictures below: Pingtest.net results show no packet loss, and the screenshot in TF2 was me running around the map shooting my scattergun, the spikes in the graph correspond with the random lag that I experienced.

now, i'm really not sure if that's what causing your spikes but, i think you should start by fixing your settings. your graph shows 20/30/100, where i would definitely just go for 66/66/15.2 (since your connection itself seems to be solid enough to work with those numbers).

cl_cmdrate 66
cl_interp 0
cl_interp_ratio 1
cl_updaterate 66
