I have 105 download and 25 upload with xfinity.  I have the netgear ac1600 c6250 router/modem combo

 

I replaced this splitter:

with this one:

I bought a new cat6 ethernet cord for my xbox one. (had a cat5e before)

And I also got rid of the old comcast crappy coaxial cables and bought two of these

... both go onto the splitter I bought and one goes to xfinity box other goes to netgear c6250.  

 

My speedtest before was in the 60s and 70s.... Now I am getting a constant 30-40... how is this possible?
