Switched to plan "NBN Cable Superfast" (100/40) but only getting 25/5

After being on NBN12 for the last 18 months I decided to increase to NBN100 so that I can backup some data to a cloud service.

 

On 2019-03-11 I received the confirmation email that the change was in effect (Subject: "NBN Plan Change Completed (3739745)"). Excited, I logged in and confirmed that my plan was now "NBN Cable Superfast", so I ran a speed test (https://www.speedtest.net/result/8103090241):

Awesome. I was briefly very satisfied. However, after a few days I noticed that my large uploads were taking much longer than I expected. So, I ran a number of speed tests at different times of the day between 2019-03-15 and 2019-03-20 and the results have been consistently showing a connection limited to 25/5.

The first result (taken 2019-03-11 16:00:00) clearly shows that my connection and equipment are capable of acheiving 100/40, but something has gone terribly wrong since then.

 

Nothing has changed on my side since the plan change was put in effect. 

 

What is wrong with my connection? When can I expect to get back the 100/40 that I am paying for?

 

Thanks,

whipray
