Why am I not Getting Advertised Speeds on 2GB Plan?

I've been having a lot of buffering issues while streaming recently so I decided to upgrade my plan from 500Mbps to the 2GB plan. My download speeds remain pretty much the same  as before the plan upgrade, average 450-550Mbps. Only my upload speeds have increased to around 300Mbps. I purchased and installed a NETGEAR CM3000 before I upgraded my plan.  Here's my modem cable diagnostic information.

I'm having the same issue, and after trying two different 2gb capable modems landed on the Netgear. Also, getting improved upload but same download. Did you ever hear back from Comcast and/or get a resolution?

hi There,

A couple of simple things you can do:

Make sure your ethernet cables are CAT 6 or above for it to handle speeds greater than 1Gbps for starters.

Also make sure your switch's ports can handle speeds greater than 1Gbps.
