Hi there, if you're hardwired, there's not a lot you can do physically to lower the ping beyond that. For CoD you want to set up port forwarding, I didn't notice you mention it, and if you haven't set up portforwarding, then that is your first step and that likely will fix a lot of the issues you have.
Before you do the port forwarding, make sure to give your Xbox a Fixed/Static IP Address in the router. Instructions found here.
Here are the ports that need to be forwarded to change your NAT type from strict/moderate to open.
Black Ops - TCP&UDP (3074)
Steam - UDP (2700, 27015-27030)
Steam - TCP (27014-27050)
The "-" signifies a range ergo 27015-27030 would be all Ports between the two numbers. (Ex. 27015, 27016, 27017......27030)
You can do this through your router's Firewall settings.
Instructions are found here.
For QoS - XboxGuy nailed down all the settings, so you can take a look at that thread, and mimic his settings in your router.

If you're talking about the port forwarding, then definitely stick with the top pull downs.
Hopefully you did the static IP. it's not a deal breaker, but it prevents future problems
So select your IP or xbox from the first drop down.
the second drop down and select custom ports
the next drop down select TCP&UDP or both and then enter 3074 in the next box and hit add.
then change tcp/udp and make it say UDP and in the next box enter 2700, 27015-27030 and hit add
Then change UDP to say TCP and enter 27014-27050 and hit add
Refresh is at the bottom, and keep refreshing until it says ACTIVE next to your new rules
So when it's done it should say (as an example) TCP ANY -> 27014-27050
the key is that it says ANY -> and then the ports that you entered.

Those are more QOS related, I'm not terribly good with it, I'll take a look at that guys thread and see if I can figure it out for you, or someone else might come by with some help.
