CM2000 LED and R8000
As it's probably been fairly established that the R8000 has a firmware issue with handling data packets. i.e. not reaching speeds past 300mbps in my particular case. I am now trying to figure out why ...
Thats due to the R8000 only supports 1000Mpbs on it's WAN port.
• Blinking blue. The port is sending or receiving traffic at 2.5 Gbps.
• Solid white. A 1 Gbps connection is established.

To seen Blue MultiGig LED on the CM modem, you need a router that supports 2.5Gb on it's WAN port. Something like Orbi RBR850, RAX200 or RAXE500. Any router with a 2.5Gb WAN port will connect to the CM modem at that rate.
