That's really serious and you have a lot of odd things going on there.
Throw this in:
Router will not take an update I have tried via the App, Netgear Genie, and through uploading the file. Everytime is says update failed. On routerlogin.net is says connewction interuped. I am doing this on a pc that is wired in.
and I'd look for something else.
In these circumstances, I'd want to reset everything and reboot the network in the right order.
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
- Turn off and unplug modem.
- Turn off router and computers.
- Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on computers and rest of network.
Before doing that I would check the speed that the modem delivers before it hits the router. Only then will you know what is throttling your connection.
The CM1200 is one of those modems that does Ethernet port aggregation. I'd check that the thing is proper configured for the ISP service and the router.
plemans knows more about cable modems and may have deeper insights.
If you hardwire, directly into your cm1200, what speeds do you get?

This really is the key question.
Get that sorted before moving on to consider anything else.
Hardwired into the modem give me 900MBPS or higher on multiple runs on multiple sites.
