I had a similar problem, had to replace my cable modem/router. I'd be in-game and not have any problems, then my ping would spike up to 800+ and sometimes disconnect me from the server altogether.
There was a problem with it assigning proper "names" to devices connecting to the internet. Since I swapped it out I haven't had any issues (knock-wood).
That said, it could be a result of a lot of different things. Did you only change your internet provider, or did you also change some/all of your hardware? Have you called your internet provider and had them check the lines to make sure everything is registering normal and there aren't any problems?

we changed everything. we used to have AT&T for internet/wifi, tv and etc. we changed it to Spectrum Charter for tv and wifi/internet. with all this changing i thought the ping issue would be fixed, i was wrong. it happens in every game (TF2 and CSGO). i have not called them , probably should.

Generally you don't want to use wifi, but that's not always practical and you shouldn't have these kinds of issues with your wifi regardless (I play on wifi mostly because I don't want cords all over my house).
I would definitely call your ISP (internet service provider) and get them to run some tests. This is especially effective if you're able to get them on the line when you're experiencing issues (but do it even if you can't).
My first step would be to contact AT&T and make sure everything checks out. They should also be able to help ensure you've set up your wireless for the best connection to your devices. If that doesn't resolve the problem I'd try another computer/laptop to help ensure it's a PC problem, then move forward from there.
