Hey all, not exactly sure if this is the right subreddit for this post, but, I have recently upgraded to a 2 gig plan with Frontier in my area, and I am not getting the full speed into my PC. I called Frontier to come out to see if anything was wrong on their end, and the new tech that came out today installed the MoCA device that I guess was forgotten during the initial install. My speeds since then have been ~200Mbps and will occasionally dip to sub-100.

The tech today ran speed tests on his laptop and was getting gigabit speeds (fastest it could handle) straight from the MoCA. I had purchased a 2.5Gbps PCIE NIC a week or so ago, along with a Cat7 and installed it in preparation for this upgrade. I updated the driver on the NIC and it had no impact on the performance of my speed tests.

I have ran speed tests on the router and it is in fact getting the full 2 gigs up/down to the ISP.

The flow chart is as follows:

ONT -> 2gig WAN on router -> Coax out of router -> MoCA -> PC via Cat7

As mentioned, the tech had ran a speed test directly from the MoCA and was getting his max gigabit speed, but for some reason my PC cannot get anywhere close to 2gigabit, let alone just 1.

I’m at a loss for what could be causing this issue. Any help is much appreciated!
