Your first problem is you are using cable for internet access... Cable connections use shared bandwidth for everyone in the neighborhood. DSL/ADLS/VDSL use point to point (dedicated connection, no sharing). So the more people in your neighborhood that use the internet, the slower your connection will be.

Second, you have maxed out the cable modems throughput.

Most cable modems were designed to realisticly handle only two, maybe three, sustained connections. You have 5.

Then you overload a 4 port router with 5 connections... shall I continue.
