Centurylink PPPOE Gigabit Connection, 100MB max?

Hello everyone,
I wanted to see if I could get pointed in the right direction. We have a Centurylink Gigabit connection coming right off the ONT to a Mini PC as the OPNSENSE Firewall. I have service, but I am limited to 100MB (Usually around 80MB)
Has anyone with this type of connection successfully reached 940/940? I see a lot of topics, but everything seems to b a year old and some of those options don't exist anymore.
Thanks in advance

Yes, but you need strong Hardware..
have an AMD EPYC 3251 8-Core Processor (8 cores, 16 threads)
now and it works great..
have 1000/300 here.. Not symetric..
Tried an I5 first, and it only reached about 700mbit
(There must be something wrong with the pppoe stack)

I purchased this off a recommendation from a website, maybe I should have done more searching?

I also use CenturyLink PPPoE over DSL transparent bridge. I have 40 Mbps/3 Mbps DSL. I can't get fiber where I'm at.
