My modem is the one supplied from My ISP, Ziggo, in the netherlands. Its Docsis 3.1.
Im testing on the site and server for my ISP. Also using speedtest.net to test around here also. One is 3Km away from me in Vodafone which supplies the glass fiber internet here over 1000up and down speeds.

Modem is the Connect Box which is the picture i am attaching.

That modem from ziggo is a modem router combo device. It can cause a double nat as it has its own integrated router functions. (based off your picture. without out a model number its tough to say 100%)

Its in modem mode (the modem from ziggo), not router mode. it does nothing but supply the connection. i had the other connect box for years with no problems. I dont even have phone through it. its literally a modem only now.

You went in and set it to disable router functions (turning off wifi doesn't disable routing functions)?
How did you do this?
Are you able to connect more than 1 device to it and have both function?

correct, modem only mode.
