Hello,
I've made little progress when changing the 2.4ghz channel to1 and the preamble mode to short, but that's about it. Our current modem is the cm1100 with a brand new coax cable.
Firmware version: V3.2.15.25_1.3.15
house sqft: 5,000ft
The router and satellite distance are about 40 feet from each other.
2.4ghz channel is set at 1, 5ghz is on 48
wifi neighbors 6
Our mbps went up from 50 to 175, but I feel like that's nowhere near what I should be getting for our 600mbps service
I was looking at the thresholds and they are set at 64. Should I leave them at that number or go up?

What channels are your nieghors using?
What wireless devices are you using for speed testing?
Be sure your using a wired PC or laptop to check actual wired speeds thru the RBR.
There is v32 update as well. I'm using it now and is working well.
I've been told by NG that change CTS values may impact some devices. You can try changing to 2347 and see if this changing anything. If not, change back to 64. You might try loading v32 first. I'm currently using v32 and use default 64 for CTS.
