Slooow downloads w/FVS318N

Hello everyone,,,

I have a FVS318N and recently upgraded my xfinity service. 

With a laptop connected directly to the cable modem I am getting 500+Mbps download speeds

When connedted to the FVS318N I only get 50 Mbps download speeds.

I have read a bunch of posts and verified that QOS for example is disabled.

I do not have any throttling.

The speck say 250Mbss wan to lan.for this model

Firmware is 4.3.5-3

Any suggestions appreciated....
