Trying to get the most out of Cox Ultimate with SB6190

I seem to have hit a wall on my internet upgrade. I've upgraded from the SurfBoard 6141 to the 6190, but I am unsure of what else I have to do in order to obtain the 300/30 speeds advertised. The speeds are identical to the 6141 after contacting tech support to update. My last tech interaction told me that I did not have the right Docsis type for the speeds, but I know that isn't the case. It is a 32 x 8 channel Docsis 3. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

You probably need the service code on your account to "Ultimate 300". This should re-provision the modem, sending a new configuration file to the modem, increasing it's top speed. 

What speeds are you getting? Around 200Mbps?

Last, what are your signal levels? They can be found at 192.168.100.1. How many downstream channels are you bonding?

As Tecknowhelp mentioned, it does sound like the code on your account may need to be updated. Send us an email to Cox.Help@cox.com with your home address or Cox account number and we can check to see if that is the case. Please reference the link to this thread as well. Thanks.
