Xfinity speeds now half with upgrade to CM2000 modem + XR1000 router
ISP: xfinity Internet Plan: Blast! Pro + Internet (speeds up to 400Mbps) Replaced my AC1750 cable modem router (c6300) that was previously on the same xfinity internet plan. Speedtest.net tested...

Yes definitely set the speeds to what speedtest is showing at full speeds. It will be limiting the speeds you're getting and also QoS would be too restrictive. The way you added it the speed test wouldn't have been prioritized. I mean attached as in you choose file/upload it from the reply box otherwise they still need to be moderated or you can upload to imgur.com or an equivalent and post the link here

- Netduma-FraserAug 21, 2021NetDuma PartnerThanks for that, when you re-enable QoS, also disable all the Traffic Prio rules, they seem to be active when they shouldn't be and also not optimal. If you do want to use Prio, then for a wired device, use the normal option, not Gaming/Voice, use that option for a wireless device that is gaming instead. You can enable Apply to WAN for each also.

Perfect. I've adjusted the settings. Will these adjustments help maintain speed and performance while gaming? PS5 and PC typically game at the same time. I appreciate the help so far.
- Netduma-FraserAug 21, 2021NetDuma PartnerThey will definitely help give you a better gaming experience, won't necessarily help with the speeds - the speeds shown by the console are an estimate and are not always accurate. With gaming you don't need much speed, 1Mbps is plenty
