Any progress on this for you? New FW seems to resolve this.

The only thing which seems to fix this is rebooting the CM1200. Additionally, I've had it running for at least a week now with Link Aggregation disabled, and I'm not seeing any slowdown, so it would appear that Link Aggregation is related to the problem.
The firmware of the CM1200 shows up as V1.01.02, for reference.
now if netgear would just push the firmware update to something we purchased it would be nice, or provide us with a discount for the purchase of a new unit.
Netgear can't push this firmware down to your modem, that's your ISP's job.
And don't bother calling your ISP to complain about it, because those CSRs will tell you that flashing firmware is your job.

Ask your ISP or escalated support from your ISP to see if they will push it to your modem. ISP control all FW updates for cable modems. NG doesn't push anything. NG gives ISPs FW to test and certify for use on there nework only. Some ISPs will push FW however some ISPs will not push FW to user owned modems.

I asked spectrum, but they said it's up to the network engineers.
