For a while now I’ve had 1200/200 service with comcast and could only ever achieve 30 upload. I’ve inquired about this a couple times and comcast always said that the next gen service just wasn’t available in my area yet. Well they performed some maintenace in the area recently and I was hopeful I would be able to get the nextgen service but I was still stuck at 30.
I’d always seen these things in the junction box but never paid them much attention. I always prefer to see if there’s anything I can do to fix or improve things before calling a tech out so I decided to replace the ground block and remove whatever those other 2 devices are. Lo and behold, my modem now shows 5 upstream channels instead of 2 and I now get 100 upload.
One of the devices (orange band) is an SHP3-35 high pass filter. No idea what the green one is, there are no markings on it. Maybe an attenuator? Anyone know if I really need either of these? It seems one or the other was holding back my upstream channels.

Not to encourage your unethical behavior (not thay Comcast has solid track record itself), but you know you can take a picture and run it through Google Images and/or some A.I., and usually you find the answer to that said item is.
