What is your question here my friend. Why did this occur?

Okay, My old modem could only handle 1GB download for web pages but my new modem can handle 4GB down for pages But only my speed has went up its still the same time for the pages and im wondering why if they said that they would load faster but it doesnt

Upload/Download speeds dont matter when it comes to loading web ages, unless your internet is super slow. Web pages transfer small amounts of data, it was made like this so you dont need a very fast internet speed.What browser are you using?

You bandwidth is controlled directly by your ISP and then only indirectly by the hardware you have purchased.

I agree. My 1st 7+ years was on dial up & even google earth worked great.

Firefox

Ok, you should be fine then, your speed seems to be enough to enjoy the web.
Edit: Delete your history and cache if you havent done so recently, then you may see a difference.

That's a pretty good Speedtest result. I'd say it's the particular web pages you're browsing on - they can only load so fast.

The server provider may not be up to par with modern architecture.

Less anyone forget, the ISP uses QoS to control the client's bandwidth
