Power levels are fine and unlikely to be the cause. You should cap that un-terminated cable though to avoid additional noise.

Downstream is on the low end of the range, which is -6 to +10 dBmV. It will rise as the weather gets colder, but by the heat of summer next year you'll probably be offline.

Upstream is good and will max out at around 54 dBmV. I wouldn't want to see levels over 51 dBmV just because if it drifts further it could max out, but 49/50 is fine.

The speeds you're getting are as expected for wired and wifi.

Your wired speeds (if you're using a non-gigabit/100Mb ethernet cable/network card) will average in the range 75-85Mb. You need a gigabit network card and cat 5e/cat6 ethernet cable to get more.

Your wifi speeds ranging from 40Mb-65Mb suggest that you have a single stream 802.11n wifi card connected on the 2.4ghz band?
