i'm not getting the speed i'm paying for
I recenly just upgraded from 50 to 100 to 300. Knowing i needed a faster wifi router, i upgraded to a newer netgear ac1000 router (model R6080). Sadly, i'm still seeing a max speed of about 70-80Mb/s, although my upload speeds are at the advertised 30Mb/s. the modem i have is docsys 3.0
any ideas?
Thanks

They've been screwing me pretty hard since I signed up, too. Their answer: it is my fault for interpreting the speed I buy as the speed I will get. Scam. I sincerely hope they collapse as a company.

Something weird is definitely going on. My download speeds vary wildly, where sometimes I'm at around 20-30, other times 80-90. I'm paying for 'up to' 100MB, and have had the technician out to confirm everything's OK. I don't see how it is possible that this isn't some form of intentional bandwidth restriction going on (throttling). Once the net neutrality law is officially dead, this stuff is going to get far worse.
