helps to know some details.
1. what router do you have?
2. what firmware is on it?
3. what modem/gateway do you have from spectrum?
4. how are you testing speeds? Wired? Wireless? What device? What site/app?
details are key.

Wow. A lot more info.
You put what model it is, the firmware you're on, and a brand of modem.
What actual surfboard is it?
What have you done to try to fix the issue?
did you try factory resetting the router and reinstalling it since your service was upgraded?
Are you testing wired? wireless? what site? What device?

Try the factory reset in case an old setting (like qos) is causing a slowdown.
Make sure to leave anything that does traffic inspection disabled during the reinstall. (like qos, access control, traffic monitoring, or parental controls)
