CM600 won't negotiate 800down/100up
Thank you!
I am experiencing the exact same issues as the OP. Xfinity, an 800 Mbps upgrade activation, and just seeing 400/24 Mbps. Ordered a CM1100.
After Xfinity installed the boot file, d11_m_cm600_superfast_c01.cm, I can't log in to the modem with either my changed creds or the defaults. Could do a factory reset, but going to leave well enough alone until the CM1100 arrives.

- greenoApprenticeEven with the cm1100 I’m limited to 200 mbps upload. The claim is netgear and xfinity aren’t on the same page for bonding protocol.
If you look here, https://assets.xfinity.com/assets/dotcom/projects/cix-4997_compatible-devices/2023.10.23%20Full%20List%20of%20Compatible%20Devices.pdf
You’ll see they only guarantee 945Mbps down. Best guaranteed upload speed is 460-ish Mbps.- demonickAspirant
Thanks for the heads-up on the upload speed. Not a gamer so 200 Mbps will do me fine.
Please post a copy and paste of the modems connection status and event log page.

I can't post the status and events, because after Xfinity installed its boot file I can't log in to the modem. Neither my creds nor the defaults work. Not sure what a factory default reboot does to the boot file, so I've decided to leave it alone until the CM1100 arrives.
Would not bother the boot config.
Good Luck.
