I cannot upload on the 5ghz network with the cax80 modem. Browsing websites/small data transfer is fine. But large files (wetransfer, onedrive, google drive) does not work.
Just had a comcast tech out. No issues with the line. Modem reprovisioned. Etc.
Factory resetting modem does not resolve. Modem has latest firmware.

Is it still an issue for you? There's another thread about this (CAX80 can't upload 5GHZ network) and after providing logs and what not nothing happened. That thread is closed now, and I just bought a new modem router because I gave up on it, but decided to give it one more try and test run uploading on 5GHz on several OS and various browser and I have encountered zero issues now.
My guess is that they have fixed it somehow, I have no other explanation. I am still keeping my new Motorola modem router at end, but think of returning it if I keep a smooth 5GHz upload.
