Lag spikes make game unplayable but only in casual valve servers

I'm having huge lag spikes in every casual match. No problems whatsoever on skial, uncletopia, anywhere else. I've been watching tf2 streams every day for over a year now and have never once seen a streamer experiencing this. Also I've never gotten a free kill from somebody else freezing, only died because I froze. It seems like the problem is only with me.

Every minute or so my screen just freezes and then I teleport 5-10 seconds later to someplace, usually to find that I died during that time.

Here is my autoexec.cfg file:

cl_interp 0.060606

cl_interp_ratio 2

cl_updaterate 128

cl_cmdrate 128

rate 786432

net_splitpacket_rate 786432

net_maxcleartime 0.015

snd_async_fullasync 1

cl_new_impact_effects 1

fps_max 140

net_graph 0

cl_forcepreload 1

And those are just a good balance that I found while trying to fix this issue. I have tried multiple combinations of cl_interp, cl_interp_ratio, cl_updaterate, cl_cmdrate, rate and the problem is identical. I contacted my ISP last month because my internet was not perfect, but they told me that it runs as good as they can get it to, and I literally have no problems in any other games, or this game for that matter if I join uncletopia.
