Will it work with Century Link?

I tried myself, but Century Link wouldn't help me because it wasn't one of theirs; and Netgear isn't much help either because I bought it from Amazon.com...Netgear was trying to charge me for support.

Hi Linda P.,I see no reason why it wouldn't work as a basic connection modem to ANY DSL-service-provider's Internet input, including that of Century Link. I have AT&T; as my DSL provider because Century Link isn't available in my Zip Code. Century Link DSL service is available in some vicinities nearby to my area in Orlando, FL, but is not available where I live. My problem wasn't getting the ADSL2+ to connect to the Internet via my DSL service, but in getting this modem to work w/ my wireless home network, once I had a direct DSL connection to the Internet. I hope this comment helps you.Best wishes,Anthony J.

I am not familiar with Century Link so I do not know if it would work or not.

Yes, I have mine hooked up from the wall, to the ADSL2, to a Cisco router. Multiple laptops, multiple iPads, and multiple iPhones connect just fine to my Cisco router and have internet connectivity.

Don't assume it works with centurylink everywhere. It depends on the areas because in my area it didn't work because we are running a different network.

Sorry but I can't say for sure. I have had no experience with century link but I would think it would work as all routers, modems and isp's have the same data to work with.

Yes it works with Centurylink. Yes on the smart TV. How fast you get on devices dep3nds in what speed you are paying Centurylink.

Yes, it should be compatible with their Basic, Lite, and Standard tiers - aka anything up to 43Mbps in speed. It's always a good idea to contact them first to verify compatibility.

Yes it works for CenturyLink but I had nothing but problems with this model. I ended up with a seperate modem and router and didn't have a problem afterwards

Absolutely not, it did not work even after being on the phone with tech for CenturyLink and the router. I ended up purchasing the device from CenturyLink

My ISP is Century Link and the Netgear DGN3500 works well with that DSL service. Request the highest possible rate in your area from Century Link to get the fastest service.

I have Century Link DSL, but just the "standard", not the VDSL. Works fine, one of the few that really are just plug and play.

This is a good modem it is primarily used For CenturyLinks High speed DSL,Make sure your using the right modem for the Type of DSL you Have and if your able to increase your DSL speeds if available in your area This should solve your problem,in the worst case scenario you will need to downgrade your Modem to a slower speed DSL Modem which is Cheaper than this one exchange it get some money back Talk to your ISP,they are an excellent source of the set up and equipment you will need.Set up is a breeze or it should Be.Have a Good one and a speedy internet connection Bye.

About three years ago, my mom bought this unit. Centurylink is her provider and it worked great.

I'm no expert, but I doubt it would work as comcast is on cable and not DSL. Two different systems I beleive

This modem works great for Centurylink. I used to get dropped connections dozens of times a day. Now I don't. Modem Interface is slow, you have to count to 5 seconds before going to new menu items when configuring modem. Be sure to use the CD to configure for Centurylink. You can also backup your configuration files incase you want to bridge the modem, and revert back to non bridged. Best Modem I have had so far.

I use it for century link which is adsl and as for cable Internet I don't believe it works so check to see if it is cable or adsl

I am not sure. I have TWC and it works fine. I saw some reviews in the past who used comcast and it worked for them. I hope it helps.

It is compatible with your CenturyLink modem. Not directly from the phone line. You must connect your CLink router via Ethernet, then it works just like any other Router. We have had good success with this Router.. Firmware upgrades have made a big difference, losing connection with WiFi items was a problem at first, but not anymore.

I purchased this unit a month ago and it worked fine with Qwest/Century Link ADSL. Also, it worked easily right out of the box - I didn't have to call Century Link customer service at all. It does not support VDSL, however. Make sure you have ADSL (which is more common) if you want to use this modem.

No, you do not have to use this router for CenturyLink Service, However For Optimal Results It Is Recommended. Also keep in mind the the pk4001z operates as a modem and router so if you get your own router make sure you have a modem as well.

It should work just fine but be sure to call Century Link to make sure they are using ADSL 2/2+ and not VDSL. This will NOT work with VSDL.
