I'm on Premier and just upgraded to a Cisco DPC3000 DOCSIS 3.0 modem and ASUS RT-N65U router. Had a Motorola Surfboard SB5101U DOCSIS 2.0 modem and Linksys WRT54G router previously. I was hoping for a speed increase, but that didn't seem to happen!
Previously I'd get around 3MB/s download and 300KB/s upload consistently, and those are the same speeds I'm getting now with the new equipment.
Using the speedtest from Cox, it says that I get 27Mbps down 16Mbps up, and using Speedtest.net I get 27Mbps down 8Mbps up.
Premier speeds are supposed to be 50Mbps aren't they? Is it because I need to update the firmware on my new router, or are these speeds normal?
Thanks in advance!

It's possible your account needs to be switched to the new DOCSIS 3.0 Premier service code if you just upgraded the modem.
