Do you know the speed rating of your 7-year old modem? Your modem may be creating a bottleneck, which will cause your Internet speed to be slower than what you are paying for.

From Hitrontech.com:

"Age of the Modem: If your modem is more than five years old, it’s likely outdated. Technology has advanced considerably in that time, and your modem may no longer support current internet speeds or security features."
