modem CAX80

Hello,
I installed a NetGear Nighthawk AX8 AX6000 WiFi Cable Modem/Router DOCSIS 3.1 CAX80,Firmware Version V2.1.1.4,  I have Xfinity/Comcast, plan is 1200mbps upload, 35mbps upload. Having trouble with upload speed. Download speed is running around 800mbps, upload is running at around 4 to 5mbps. Have reset to defaults, have been in chat with tech, have been on the phone with tech, nobody knows why download is so low.

Model: RAX80|Nighthawk AX8 8-Stream WiFi Router

Re: modem CAX80

Do you have a screen snip of the cable connections page and the event logs? 

That helps check the signal from the ISP. 

 

How are you testing speeds? hardwired in? over wireless?

Re: modem CAX80

Tested speeds from wireless as well as wired, tested from 7 different machines. All have about the same upload 5.9gbps max. The original modem from comcast was running at over 40gbps just prior to replacing, my plan calls for 1200 download and 35 upload. Thanks

Re: modem CAX80

makes it hard to read when you post it like that. Next time get a screen snip. easier to read. 

Do you also have you logs? 

Any amplifiers/splitters/signal attenuators in your line?

Re: modem CAX80

I'll check the line again, bust last time it was serviced we had everything removed from the line because we no longer have cable, just internet.
