Low Speeds (Rogers, AR)
This is one of those long winded posts. I've been here before for other issues, so hopefully the resolution for this one is good like before.
My speeds have drastically dropped in the past days. I've been keeping an eye on it and it hasn't changed since sometime at the end of February. Below is a list of speed tests both from Cox and other websites:

The test on 2/28 1pm is with my PC directly connected to my modem. While the PC was directly connected to the PC, I did tests on the other speed test sites and the results were in the same range as today, that discards my router.
These are my current signal levels, and they have been in that range for the last month (I check every other day):

The only that has slightly changed since a month ago, this regarding my signal levels, is the downstream power levels going from 2dBmV to 5dBmV, which I doubt is the problem.
One thing to note though is that before this happened (mid February)I was seeing 2 upstream channels (2 and 3 I believe) that kept dying and showing as "Aborted" and wouldn't come back up until I rebooted the modem. This has stopped happening, for now.
Any help with this?
Thank you.
