I then bridged and plugged in the Netgear R7000 and boom right back down to 25mbps. So I have ordered a newer 2600 level modem and will try that out to see. For now I am sticking with my Netgear because the range on the Shaw modem sucks.
Are you having them bridge the modem or just using the IP Passthrough option? Curious because I have a new router I want to try because yes the Wifi range does suck.
