XB10 gateway only providing a small fraction of contracted speed

I currently have the 2GB/2GB internet package. My XB10 gateway is maxing out at a whopping 120mbps down. What is going on here? This is the second XB10 I've had, and each time I restart this device my download speeds decrease.

@EG​ This is a broader issue with all XB10s and how they are binding to the network. These devices, for some reason, are connecting at slower speeds once the network recognizes them. I was told this is a known issue that both the networking and backend teams are working on.
