Need help optimizing speed
I have a netgear cm1000 modem and a netgear xr1000.
I picked up 1200 gbps from xfinity and the router is only getting 460mbps download and 24 upload
The modem is hardwired and the modem is hardwired to the router.
Is this normal?

- Netduma-FraserNetDuma PartnerAre you testing the speed using the in built speedtest? If so, ignore that, set the speeds you expect (1000 down / 24 up) and then do a speedtest.net test via ethernet, do you get better results then?

hardwire the pc/laptop directly into the cm1000 and test the speeds. Pointless to troubleshoot a router before finding out if you're getting full speeds.
