Recent X2 Upgrade, Not experiencing any upgrade in speed.

I recently upgraded to X2 service with the XB8-T modem.  I'm running it in bridge mode to an Eero mesh. After installing and making sure all the software and firmware was current, I do not see any difference in speeds, which approximately 900 down and 100 up.  That's certainly fast, but I thought the new equipment would essentially double that. So.. before I go through everything on the inside of the house, how can I be assured that the connection at the street is capable of the increased speeds?

... X2 service with the XB8-T ... in bridge mode to an Eero mesh ... 900 down ...

Are you using the gateway's 2.5 Gb port (red dot or stripe)? The other 3 ports are only 1 Gb and will only run at 940 Mb or so.
