RBR850 slow download fast upload (wired)

I recently switched to TDS fiber (gigabit) and got an Orbi RBK853.   Using the Orbi's built in speed test I get 250-300Mbps down and 975Mbps up.   Any ideas why my download speed is so much slowe...

I'm at the office now so probably won't be able to provide this info until I get home.  Will update post when I can.

    It is a Calix 711GE ONT.

    I haven’t been able to kick my kids off the internet yet to run a speed test on my laptop so that might have to wait until tonight.
