cax80 xfinity slow speeds netgear needs to fix this
another cax80 not getting full speed from xfinity there is a problem here just had a guy out to check the wires from xfinity and everything is great and tried to talk to xfinity and they sent signals...
I Put my CAX80 online as router today. I'm seeing good download speed on the wire.
I'll check this over the weekend.
After a long time and replacing the CAX80 with tech support, I finally gave up and went and bought an eero 6 Pro. I setup the CAX80 in modem mode by just turning the router part off, hooked up the eero to the 2.5Gbps port (matter of preference, if eero doesn’t support over 1G, any port should be fine).
End result, all problems of slow and intermittent connections disappeared.
The eero limits my service to 1G, yes; but I rather have 1G fast and stable with eero, than 1.2G or more with the Nighthawk all buggy and unreliable.

- I agree. Hence my disappointment with the product. I wish I knew the cax was so unreliable, I would have bought the CM and paired it with the eero since the beginning.
