XG2v2-P is so slow... should I ask for an upgrade?

My XG2v2-P is VERY slow.  Pressing buttons on the remote is a 5-9 second lag particularly for streaming apps.  Different streaming channels are so laggy they can't be watched (especially paramount). For example, I can run the Paramount app on my phone in the same area as my XG2v2-P and it works well.

I've tried the following: restarted the Xfinity router, unplugged the XG2v2-P for a while and plugged it back in.  The XG2v2-P  is about 20 feet from the router and other wireless devices work well in the same area.  I don't have the ability to use a wired connection to the XG2v2-P.

Is there a way to check the wireless signal in the XG2v2-P?

What else can I do? 

Is there a more current version of this box that would be faster and have the same services (DVR, etc.) as my current box?
