I understand that you're experiencing some slow speeds, and you are running a speed test with an Ethernet cord. Can you tell me what troubleshooting steps you've already tried? Such as restarting your modem or performing any troubleshooting in the Xfinity My Account app? Also, are you using your own modem with a stand alone router or are you using our Xfinity gateway?
