UPgraded data plan but network still at old speeds

Upgraded to 2G plan yesterday. I have an Arris Surfboard S33 modem. DOCSIS® 3.1 cable modem. My modem has a 2.5G port for LAN. Connected to Asus router via Cat6 cable. I run speed tests directly from my router so computers or equipment on LAN have no beating on speeds seen. I have worked (chated) with two separate agents. I gave agents my modem MAC address. Both told me they have reset, authorized, tested, etc., my modem. I have unplugged my modem as told to restart it when asked. I sill get 700M max. My old plan was for 800M.  I would really like to get this fixed - since I upgraded for the next year with no improvement in speed or service. Please help.
