or does the netcode in this game suck? It's either the netcode, or TimeWarner being a shittastic ISP once again.

The netcode isn't the best but if you have a craptastic internet connection then there is zero hope that you'll hit the broad side of a barn.

(Insert rant here about playing on 26.6 modem dial-up with Tribes and Tribes 2 and never having a problem)

The 1.3 patch has a fun bug that fucks with the servers. Sometimes they'll either

A) Lose Everybody's Internet Connection and Restart

or

B) Shoot your ping up to 996

EA has done some REALLY fucking stupid things, but now when I can't play on my server without having it crash every hour... I dunno. These are some really incompetent motherfuckers.

1.3 does have a lot of problems, it is pretty bad when you notice the server message as you join states "1.3 causes the server to crash from time to time, please re-join if this happens."

The netcode in this game has always been pretty crappy compared to other modern games with the same number of people.
