I have the 500 packages
It should have gone from 36 to 52 mbps

It would have helped a lot for work

Shame! In modem mode my hub 3 responds to https://192.168.100.1 and I press "check router status" on the front page (don't log in) and on the Configuration tab it shows you the Primary Downstream Service Flow and the Primary Upstream Service Flow

The "Max traffic rate" is in bytes per second the speed you are limited to.

Cable Modem Status
Item Status Comments
Acquired Downstream Channel (Hz)

Ranged Upstream Channel (Hz)

Provisioning State

Is it a hub 3 limitation then ?

That's the Status tab, you want the Configuration tab.

Mine shows:

Downstream
Max Traffic Rate	287500061

Upstream
Max Traffic Rate	27500061


Converting the bits/sec into megabits/sec:
287500061 = 287.5
27500061 = 27.5

This is about the top I see in a speed test on the 250/25 service.

The Hub 3 is DOCSIS 3.0 and you need the 4 or 5 to use additional DOCSIS 3.1 features, which I think might include more upstream capacity.

You could ask Customer Services if they can get you a newer hub.

Not checked for a while, and was away for few days, I checked just now and no US timeouts at all now, no 3.1 T3's and still no post error correction errors on DS, so at least quality has gone up again.

But of course still same upload,
