I have an raxe300 connected to a cm3000

And THAT'S the problem, if I let it automatically regulate, my speed drops to between 440 and 470 mbps. BTW, I should have probably mentioned this earlier, I am actually a network engineer, with a CNE, and certs in Micom, Bay Networks, Cisco, Newbridge Mainstreet, Gandolf and Simplex. I really DO know what I am doing, but this router appears to have a firmware fault, and again, others have probably run into it, but without understanding how to narrow down where the issue was, probably blamed all kinds of other equipment or their service provider.
When I was messing with my RAXE500 and CM3000, I found that if you got in that "rut' of it stuck at a lower speed, I had to factory reset. And if I then left those settings (parental controls, traffic monitoring, qos) all disabled, it'd be fine. If I enabled them, sometimes I'd run into issues. Not everytime. I'd try the reset if you're still having lower speeds. During the reinstall. Just leave those all disabled.
