Don’t forget if work has a VPN the speeds will be slowed even further! My wife and I both have VPN for WFH.. we have Xfinity 1200D/40U and she is constantly complaining her video calls are dropping. We test speeds when she is not on VPN and (wirelessly) she gets around 300D/20U but then we connect to her works VPN and it suddenly goes to about 80D/7U. When I wirelessly am on VPN I get 130D/20U.

If you have any MoCA adapters and you don’t have a filter on your house.. you might be sending that info out over the wire. I had that happen once.. using MoCA adapters. Cable guy calls me and says I am putting out “stuff” into the system. I happened to be on vacation at the time.. told him I would be back next week.. I added an adapter inside my attic before the coax went out to the neighborhood and asked them to check again.. they never responded and never came back.
Then years later (maybe 1 year ago) when a guy came over to re-run my line out to the box (I think neighbors lawn people cut it).. he slapped a MoCA filter into the connection box and said they were standard/required now. So I was able to remove the one in the attic.
