CAX80 Not Getting Plan Speed
I bought a CAX80 yesterday, with the hopes that the wi-fi in it would be better than the XF XB7 with the 2 GB plan. After activating the CAX80 on XF, it's falling real short of what I was getting wit...

Hi, the switch is a TrendNet TEG-S350, but looping that out, there is no change. CAX80 straight to PC is still 500-600. All cables are CAT8. Exact cables/switch/setup as with the Xfin XB7 gateway, it's just 1/3 the speed.
The wifi performance isn't bothering me as much for the moment as the LAN. Speedtest within the netgear app shows 2300D/240U. (as well as the "2.5" lit up on the front of the modem.
Actual speed tests result in 500-600 and less than 10M up.
Firmware is V2.1.5.2

So you were able to see to spec speeds with same PC connected to the ISP modem?
CAT8 STP should be used.
Please post a copy and paste of the modems connection status and event log page.

To answer your question, yes, I get the 2.2G on the xfinity gateway, direct to PC and through switch.

Ok, now I guess I need help on how to post the rest of the logs, I get this error: "Your post has been changed because invalid HTML was found in the message body. The invalid HTML has been removed. Please review the message and submit the message when you are satisfied."

Just press POST when you see that message.
Cable Connections page looks good. Power and such is with specs. Zero Correctables is good.
Post the Event Logs page.
What is the connection rate speed seen on the CAX80s WEB page under Advanced tab/Internet Port section/Show Stats/LAN port 5?
