... Steam always maxes out my 5 Mbit connection.
Do you know this for sure?
How are you measuring this?
Why would a game need to use this much bandwidth?

Or is this an assumption, conclusion, or interpretation of something else?

Could it be that you are experiencing the effects of congestion, or worse, the effects of connection spikes that will paralyze or crash a NAT-SPI-conntrack router?
