You'll need to contact your ISP and have them help you with getting the C7000 speeds up. They need to check the signal and line quality UP to the modem.
Be sure that there are no coax cable line splitters in between the modem and ISP service box.
Be sure you are using good quality RG6 coax cabling up to the modem.
Your issue has nothing to do with DOCSIS versions.
