Not getting up to 50 MBps speed

Hi,

   I am not sure where else to turn.  I have called twice and done the tech chat thing atleast 4 times.  I recently called and upgraded from preferred internet (25-30MBPS) to premier (up to 50MBMps).  My speed never changed.  Before I was getting an average of 25-30 MBps and still do.  I used speedtest.net and Cox's own speed test.  Nothing changed.  

Every time I contact Cox they say something like " I will re-provision the cable modem in order to get the correct speed and then you can make a test on the connection.".  The chat gets disconnected and once my modem comes back up I run the test and nothing changes??

I am getting frustrated, I am paying more but not getting more.  Not sure where else to turn other than I saw some moderators on this forum help out some people with similar problems..

I have the Cisco DPQ3212 modem.  I have power cycled it, had cox 're-provision' it, even changed the ethernet cables all in hopes of getting my new speed.   

Can anyone help please???

I am also having the same problem just upgraded from preferred to premiere a couple of days ago using a SB6141 modem, my download speeds are between 25-30MBps and my upload speeds are between 15-20MBps.

So was hoping to hear from someone at Cox by now but given this is the weekend maybe I should expect monday.  Anyways hope they help you also gdhaliwal..  This am I ran another cox speed test and still the same:  My Upload Speed went up by about 4 MBps but as you can see I am still 17 MBps short of 50...  I understand it says "Up too 50 MBps" but I should be in the ballpark... Not 33MBps if I am paying for the higher speed...

Thanks Tiffany, that seems to be working.  I just got home and tried the speed test and it was 55MBps...  I will check it later and withing the next few days to make sure it still works but looks like that did it....   Thanks you sooooo much!
