Internet Speed discrepancy

Hello there,

My plan is the 1100 speed but it almost never exceed 1GIG. Then, now I am getting notifications from Xfinity saying that I am getting more than what it is. Could someone please explain?

jpva23 We have been upgrading our speeds for a lot of customers. You may have gotten an increase with a completed upgrade. With your speeds, however, unless you have a hardwired device, you may not see the increase since Wifi is always going to be slower than a hardwired connection. Do you by chance have any devices hardwired to the modem you can use the speed test on to confirm the speed your modem is receiving directly?

@XfinityAmandaB​ Hello there,

My Gateway Eero Pro is hardwired directly to the Xfinity box, so I’m unsure why there is such a significant performance difference. The discrepancy seems inconsistent with the advertised capabilities.
