There is an app that accompanies it that allows me to adjust settings. They allow you to run a speed test. Needless to say my upload speeds this time is much higher than in the past. Not sure why it didn’t calculate my download speed though.

Maybe run an independent speed test not using the software that came with the router.

If you attach a spoiler to the modem and paint the antennae red it will go faster. Also if it has little rubber feet on the bottom, pry those off. If it rides lower you'll get more downforce.

I'm no modem mechanic, but I'm pretty sure you have to put decals on it too if you want the full speed increase.

So Imgur is down and I have no idea of posting a speedtest image.

I think some VTEC and Powered by Honda stickers should be good for an extra few megahertz per hour on the downloads. Exhaust too. Get an empty coffee can and cut the bottom out and drill a hole in the back of the modem and mount it with some hot glue. Backpressure can lead to lost packets when the ethernet heats up. People gave to4str a lot of grief but I tell you one thing - the man never had downloading troubles.

It usually looks kind of like a tachometer, but with megahertz of download speed instead of meters per hour.

This will never do, you'll never be safe from being ripped off by grubhub using that router.
