I just spoke with the tech (and his dispatch / support) and finally have an explanation of the problem — it's
clear that very few people at Spectrum understand how this new service works and it has taken quite a while
to get answers.
Their gigabit service requires their two-box (separate modem and router) hardware solution and does
not allow us to bridge their router and use our firewall/router solution.
What that means for us is that we either:
I. have to run the service in double-NAT, which will disable external access to the security cameras and
possibly the HVAC (the HVAC being the bigger problem), or
2. we have to remove our firewall and (assuming I can configure their router to do the advanced muting
—I won't knowfor sure until I ay) run our network, which will expose access to the security system to
anyone that can join the WiFi network.
The only other choice is to downgrade to their 400 Mbps service that will allow us to use their old hardware
(single box combo modem & router like we had previously).

Obviously none of these options are great. Please let me know what we'd like to do.

Honestly Spectrum seemed to have no clue what they were doing with this new service.
The install tech seems to think it can be done remotely, but I'm almost certain they're going to want to
swap out their modem and router again.
Merwin has the install tech's contact info to follow up as soon as Mr. Epstein is traveling again.
Once Spectrum can get us back to 940+ at their router, I'm going to need to go back and test the WiFi
speeds on all the floors. It varies wildly from floor to floor at the moment. I'll need to figure out how
much of that variance is wiring, and how much I can fix with configuration changes.

The new service is up and working at better speeds than we were getting, with the static IP needed for
the security cameras.
We were getting the new 1GB speed before they made changes for the static IP; but they broke
something and now we're seeing around 500/40. Spectrum still needs to resolve that, but we ran out of
time getting everything back up and running before the boss arrives.
