The tech told me they had installed those channel filters a few years back so they can block people from "stealing" or accessing and viewing cable channels from internet-only cable subscribers. But now with Gigbit internet service those same channel filters also block modem channels making internet signals unstable and slow. When I log in to my modem, it now shows it firing on all cylinders (channels). I'm a happy camper. Thanks you all.
