Believe me I’m suspicious. I showed him that page and he said notice they don’t state an upspeed, just down. If you’re getting more I’m jealous.
And in case netgear is listening, I have an option that is cheaper and guaranteed to work, hitron coda. $100. Hitron CODA DOCSIS 3.1 Modem | Pairs with Any WiFi Router or Mesh WiFi | Certified with Comcast Xfinity, Charter Spectrum, Cox | 10x Faster Than DOCSIS 3.0 | Cable Modem with 2X 1 Gbps Ethernet Ports https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0981553MT?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_dp_V4YPNV9QSP95ACHA4X3D&language=en-US
I paid $155 for a brand new cm1100 directly from Amazon…
As a customer I’m unhappy regardless of the real reason. I’m a brand loyal guy and netgear for cable modems has been my go to for the last 2 products. Wireless ap’s before that…
I can see it in the logs that the cm1100 is unhappy with the upstream comcast node… I posted the critical message previously.

Oh and I’ll add that when cm1100 ‘works’ on Comcast’s network, it’ll easily beat the Hitron up speeds. So I’m inclined to wait a bit. I’m getting the full 800mbps to the lan after dropping openwrt into my ubiquiti er-x yesterday which is a working/correct hw offload for the er-x switch. So that’s a success!
