Sudden lagging problem, started in 12/26-12/29

Hello everybody...first post for me...
I recently have had severe lag problems while playing dota on several different computers. Each of the computers that are having the problem have been playing dota totally lag free for several years (except for invoker lag @ beginning of game to load resources). Because all of the computers are on the same network (my home network) I thought it was related to my internet so I upgraded my Fios to a 50 mbps download speed connection. I checked my speed and it is 58 mbps, but dota is still lagging. I asked some random players and one said they have a 12 mbps with no lag! It is as though suddenly my dota is ticking every few seconds, a similar type of lag to the invoker loading resources lag actually, and it tends to get worse (duration of the lags) as the game goes on, though this may not be totally accurate.
Does anybody have any idea what could be going on here? Any suggestions would help!
Thank you
