high latency on the Download ever since the outages in early spring and summer

i keep getting latency issues on the download bufferbloat test will have random skyrockets in pings when the load is on the down. I used winmtr and every step is fine except for the Chicago.comcast step which is showing latency over 200. the romeoville step is perfect... whats the deal here. No i don't want a tech to come out to my house for no reason.
