Go to pa.speedtest.rcn.net

and paste the modem info at the bottom, you can obscure your IP address. We need to see the modem levels mainly.

Your signal levels look OK, so this isn't the cause.

For testing purposes you are using a WIRED connection straight to the cable modem correct? Not using wireless.....
