Wired ethernet download speed slow

Hello,

This are my provider speeds (1000 down 50 up)

I'm having Wired ethernet download speed slow (80 down 50 up). 

my wifi speed is faster then my Wired ethernet download speed , but just the download, the upload is good! 

i have the same results for the Upload on wifi and ethernet, i have the same readings on my samsung tv and Amazon Fire Tv connected to ethernet, I'm using all Cat 8 cables

    What devices do you have? You told us nothing about your setup or what devices you have. 

    we don't know if you're using a router, a powerline adapter, a wireless extender, or what. 

    Details are key

      I'm just using a netgear R9000 connected to a modem Harris SB8200 3.1

      All the ethernet connections cables are Cat 8

        What firmware is on the R9000.

         

        I assume that "Harris SB8200 " is Arris SB8200. If so, standard cable modem. 

         

        What speed do you get if you take the router out of the picture, with speeds measured straight off the modem?

         

        For more one your router, try the appropriate section:

         

        Nighthawk WiFi Routers

      I’m not able to measure the speed without the router connected, I don’t have any tools but this are the readings from the R9000 app and it’s also what I signed for from the cable company
