CAX30 Slow Internet Speeds
Hello all Need some help please. I recently decided to get my own modem instead of renting one out from Xfinity. I got tired of their XB7. I bought a brand new Nighthawk CAX30 (AX6 AX2700) about ...
UPDATE: I finally did the restore to factory settings. Now I am getting around 550 Mbps. Not the full speed yet, but definitely happier with the speeds.
I have experienced the same issue with this router since buying it at Costco in July 2021. My firmware is up-to-date with version 1.4.10.8.
After initial setup, I get 350 - 500Mbps direct from the router over Xfinity that is provisioned for 400 Mbps. Within hours, the rate drops to 120 - 150 Mbps. It does this consisetently.
If I do a reboot, nothing is improved. This is consistent and repeatable.
If I do a hard factory reset, speed is temporarily restored. This is consistent and repeatable.
If I restore a backed-up configuration and then restore/overwrite + reboot, sepeed is temporarily restored. This is consistent and repeatable.
This router needs better firmware is all I can figure.

Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the Orbi With Cable Modem products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with Orbi with cable modem and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this router forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:
