I've gotten some ethernet cables that only have 4 wires inside them instead of 8 (freebies included with devices). These won't do gigabit. Cables also get damaged and intermittent cable faults are...

All the cables are newer 5e cables including the new one that came with the modem. I forgot about distance being an issue with running the wireless tests as I was taken aback by the ethernet test...

Also check the manuals for the router and modem to see if there's a way to tell from the...

I agree on that but they must have all 3 services, I'm not sure what their contract is though. Hopefully this new modem will help but from what I've read online about comcast their dropping is...

From what I've been reading in the xfinity forums this is a common issue so not sure if the new router will stop the wifi drops but at least it will increase the speed.

Frankly, I would not expect to get the full 250 mbps speed they're paying for out of a router that costs less than $65. Not sure I understand the RV comment, they're living in an RV in the driveway...

There are a lot of things that can affect a speed test, both on your ISP's side and wherever the test is being done. ISPs often prioritize traffic to okkla/speedtest to make the numbers look good. ...
