under 100mb for "gigabyte" service while wired

Just signed up and first test of the service.

About 90 mb for supposedly "one gigabyte" service, cat 5 cable hooked directly to computer.

Not talking about wireless, haven't test that yet.

Is there a way to access the dashboard of the modem?

Am I hooked up to the correct port?  There were several but only one with a green light.

Thanks!

First. What is the exact make and model number of the router / gateway device ? If it's an Xfinity rented gateway device, use the port with the red stripe next to it. And if you are using a cat5 Ethernet cable, try using a cat6.

Why does this have to go private at this point ? That kind of defeats the purpose of a public help forum such as this is, no ?... Why not ask some general self troubleshooting things first which is in keeping with the intent of what these public help forums were designed for so that all readers here may benefit.
