    Xfinity speed issues

    They updated the Xfinity list to show what’s compatible in my area. The S33 is actually listed again. Unfortunately while the modems can handle over 2G Xfinity won’t approve it past 1.2G. Meaning anyone on a 2 gig plan is stuck with their equipment. I ended up complaining to them after the...

    Setup advice

    X2 cable service requires that you use their equipment. I’ve recently run speed test off a laptop using the 2.5 port. I see the speeds match what I’m getting on the router. I’ve noticed when I reset the modem my speeds slowly improve over the next hour. I’ll rest the modem overnight as to not...

The secondary is a fiber 1 gig up & down service. The equipment is currently Xfinity XB8, Asus AX11000 & AXE16000. I’m finding my current...
