1. i can't get nextgen service at this time regardless of my modem.
2. even if i did have nextgen service, my cax30 is not yet capable of that (even though it is a recommended device)
correct?
Your specific service address has not yet been updated to receive the Xfinity Next Gen service. Work in progress across the Xfinity service areas.
Your CAX30 does not have the updated firmware necessary to allow it to connect to the Xfinity Next Gen network. The list of devices approved for Next Gen network connection is updated by Xfinity every month or so.
Yes, correct.
was testing with wireless.
just did a wired test. 332 download, 23 upload
answer to other questions in a moment
i had done no firmware update but i did one going to 2.2+. i see no speed difference after that.

did not factory reset.
Looking at your logs, we see some correctables and un-correctables that should be mostly zeros but not too bad.
Power levels are with in specs.
Ya, no OFDMA signal. Something to ask the ISP about.
Also the event log is loaded with Critcials. Any Criticals, Errors or Warnings seen in the event logs needs to be reviewed and resolved by the ISP. Indicates a signal issue on the ISP line up to the modem.
Have the ISP check the signal and line quality UP to the modem. Be sure the ISP provisions the modem correctly.
Be sure there are no coax cable line splitters in the between the modem and ISP service box.
Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cable up to the modem.
Start with removing any amplifiers, signal attenuators, or splitters from the coax.
From there check the line for kinks, damage, moisture in the line.
Check the connectors for improperly made ends, foil touching the copper coax line, loose connections, bad/old/cheap connectors, or corroded connections. Replace them if you do.
Be sure to power OFF the modem for 1 minute then back ON.

https://highspeed.tips/docsis-events/FYI, since the CAX30 only has 1Gb supporting LAN ports, the CAX30 may only be deemed supporting of 1Gb ISP speeds or lower. CC and XF split there ISP services a couple of years ago into a 800Mbps and 1.2Gb service and discontinued there actual 1Gb service in various areas. So best recommendation is to ask the ISP about there 800Mpbs service for now, if there not supporting of the actual 1Gb service. The CAX30 would not be supportive of anything beyond that.
