    Due to a single coax line to the modem and your ISP only gives 1 WAN IP address and the 1Gb ports and the ISP isn't supporting this model model on there network for the 2.5Gb speed tier. You'll need a modem on there mid split/higher speed tier to take advantage of the higher speed beyond 1Gb. Just how it is. NG CM2000 series and 3000 series have 2.5Gb and higher WAN ports. the CM1000 series do not. The CM1150v has 4 WAN ports however those are only assignable by the ISP and most ISPs only give out 1 IP address, so this would be a limitation by the ISP as well for the CM1000 series. 

     

    If you really don't need 2.5Gb speeds then keep what you have. I'm still on a 1Gb line with my ISP and it services 4 people nicely.
