cm1000 > ac1750 download speed
I have a AC1750 with the latest firmware connected to a netgear cm1000. My xfinity contract is for up to 400 mps.
When I plug my PC into the cm1000, I get those download speeds. When I connect the cm1000 to the AV1750 using a 6e cable,
reset everything and plug my PC using a 6e cable into a ethernet port, I get only about half that speed.
ANyway to fix the and get my maximum download speed???
Thanks, Ray
OS is Windows 10
I would stick to that version for now. I've seen issues on the .118/.120 version.
Glad it worked!

firmware: V1.0.4.120_10.0.91----This firmware matches the R6400v2. Might that be your device?

try installing version 1.0.4.106 of the firmware to the router. then do a factory reset and reinstall. Don't install from a backup. Disable auto-updates and test the speeds.
