Low mbps (R6700v3)

So I upgraded my router recently to the Nighthawk R6700v3 but my internet speed is still netting around 70-80 even with the new router. I'm not super computer savvy so some assistance would help. I recently upgraded my net to 400 mbps but with the router, it's still not reaching the speed I am paying for. It seems that the router is preventing it from going that high
