MB8600 WAN LAG with Asus RT-AX86S

I recently replaced my CM1000 because I was bumped to 1.2Gb service. I replaced it with an MB8600 because my AX86S can only do >1000mbps if you do a LAG with ports 1 and 4 (no 2.5Gbps port.) I was able to get the modem to come online as DOCSIS3.1 (all blue LED's) and my router shows the LAG is connected at 2Gbps. However, I can only get ~800mbps down no matter what I do and it varies from 650-800, this is tested directly from the router to the modem in the ASUS GUI. With my CM1000 I was able to get 940mbps consistently.

Is it possible that my modem isn't provisioned correctly? I have seen others that were able to get 1400mbps with their 8600's.

Are you able to test it directly to just the modem, without the router, and see what type or performance you can get?
