I realize this thread is getting long in the tooth but wanted to comment that I just got an email from Spectrum saying they doubled my speed "at no extra cost" so I'm regularly at 230mb download speed. Of course we all know that "no extra cost" means the price will be going up again soon but I'll take the added speed!
I received the same letter yesterday, and an email tonight with the same message, but added based on my account information I need to replace the modem with one that will "optimize my internet experience ". The Spectrum issued modem we use (Arris TG1682) seems to be working fine. I speed tested on my phone which netted 216 mbps down and 11.7 mbps up. Why do I need another modem? Unless Spectrum can't remotely throttle the one I have if I stream to excess?
