Slow download speeds, 2 gig plan and S33 modem

Hi,

Using my S33 I was getting 900-1300 mbps download speeds with the gig plus plan. 2 days ago I switched to the 2 gig plan and now my S33 is getting at best 650-690 mbps. Would this “nextgen” network be responsible for such a big drop in the download speeds?

@EG  you had mentioned this topic in the other thread. Wondering if it is the same scenario? Thanks again.

user_py8yb1 Although the S33 isn't approved for Next Gen speeds, if this happened right after a package change it may not be related to being in a Next Gen area, but simply just a need for a new provisioning of your gateway. I would be happy to look into what is causing the drop in speed for you.
