What should my speed be when I test on the web?
I see a lot of I pay for x but I get Y threads, but no answers. I am on a 600 plan but when I test with https://speedtest.xfinity.com its always in the 200's, sometimes it drops to 100's but typically around 250 - 280. Since I upgraded a year ago I don't think I have seen it over 300. It does not change even if I connect directly to the modem without a router.
My modem is an Arris T25. Signal seems good. Downstream SNR around 38, Downstream power around 0, hardly any uncorrectables. No disconnects.
I tried every troubleshooting I can find.
I tried chatting I got a kid that was following a script. After I told him that I always use a wired connection he asked me if my laptop has a good wifi signal "right now". Off course he told me to call Arris.
Before I start my usual, call the 800 number and hung-up when I hear an Indian accent (from my experience Indians are not allowed to deviate from the script) until I get someone in this country is there anything else I can do to get the speed I should be getting?

Wow, no one answered your question. I have exactly the same issue. Same modem T25. I pay for gigabit speed...I test and I get around 280 or so....same as my very old Arris 822, which XF bricked for me by "de-provisioning" it without ever telling me they were doing that....but I digress. Did you ever find a solution to this?
