That first "unknown host"
* Unknown Host * 0.0.0.0 7 0ms

Looks like a routing issue your ISP is having.

Mine and hubby's game has been lagging horribly since about 7pm GMT on Europa.

 

[Shamus Turlough]

Looks like you aren't the only one either. It looks like Virgin Media is having something happen...
