CM600 WAN port will only negotiate 100M/Full
CM600
Hardware Version 1.01B
Firmware Version V1.01.18
Very recently I started getting slow download speeds (10MB/s vs 50MB/s on Steam). Opened a ticket with Comcast, they've had multiple techs here and resolved multiple feed line issues. Now after showing 1200Mbps on their test equipment at the line at the modem, I verified that the WAN port is only connecting at 100M/Full. I tried several cables that test successfully to 1000M/Full on other devices. I tried a factory reset from the admin console and I see no newer firmware. Any ideas what could have happened?
Edit: I see it didn't go into the correct forum, but I didn't see "cable modems" in the drop-down.
IF the modems been reset and you've tired different cables. Sounds like the WAN port is faulty and the modem probably needs to be replaced.

Agreed, the new CM700 is performing flawlessly so far and I'm getting 700+Mbps right now. My upstream is pretty crap though (18Mbps) so I'll still need another service call.

Good to hear the new modem is working.
Ensure there are no cable line splitters in between the modem and ISP service box.Please mark your thread as solved so others will know.
Enjoy. :smileywink:
