Receiving less than half of speed in my plan

I've lived at my current address for a few years now and have never received the original 800mbps speed or the gigabit+ speed I'm currently paying for, the highest my speed will ever get now is 700mbps~, on average it sits around 500-600. I've switched routers and modems, checked my cables in home up to the cable coming from the pole and everything on my end is good. Is there a chance a configuration at a local hub could be preventing me from receiving the speed I should be getting?

@XfinityGabriel​ Since this post, my speed is now under 100mbps, which is just outrageous when paying for gigabit speeds. I have performed the following steps on my end to help remedy this issue: reboot all networking equipment, factory reset both my modem and router, tried different coax cable, tested the coax cable from my wall jack to the service connection outside the house (where the home cable meets the cable from the pole), this test indicated this portion of the cable was fine. I've done /ipconfig release/renew, different ethernet cables, different modems, everything I can think of. My speed is under 100mbps regardless of whether I have a wired or wireless connection.
