Apparently there are 2 speeds for this exact same make and model of modem. Is this the one that can handle 40 MBPS of Century Link?

I do not know this for a fact, but believe this model will go no higher than 20 MBPS

We purchased that modem for Century Link service and as long as it is the VDSL2 it is capable of handling 40 MBPS.

Marvin, I have this unit and 40MBPS with Century Link. So, it should work for you. Kerry

No experience with CenturyLink, but my experience with set-up showed that having tech support from your DSL provider ON THE PHONE while you walk through the set-up wizard so they can provide correct answers to the questions is the easiest way. I've had no problems with this modem since I purchased it.

I am using the Actiontec GT701D with Century Link right now and it works perfectly. Here is the link to the Century Link modem compatibility chart: http://internethelp.centurylink.com/internethelp/modem-compatibility-table-q.html

It depends on your preferences, but this modem router will work with Centurylink ADSL

I do not know if it will work at 20, 40, 50, or 100 mbps, but I have had it installed on "ADSL2 Plus" from CenturyLink at 10.2 mbps for about a year and it has worked well. I believe that I have had to reboot my DSL modem less often since I installed it. It seems, theoretically, that it should work at any data rate.

I'm not sure what the difference is in the modem/routers. I know that the "Z" model is the newest generation.

I think you mean SB6180. The SB6180 is supposed to be sold only by ISP's. That is one difference.Performance is much different:SB6121: 172Mbps download / 131Mbps upload.SB6180: 300-343Mbps download / 131Mbps Upload.The speed capabilities of the modem's are quite different.I would purchase the SB6180 again without a second thought.

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.

That is complete b.s. I have been using a TM722g in the San Mateo area for over a year. I have screaming fast internet speeds via Comcast (120mbps) and no monthly equipment fees. From day one it has worked flawlessly and there have been no issues whatsoever.

I actually have this modem, we started with Qwest, than of course it became Century Link. I have the 12Mbps speed, it works great on this modem.We are in Colorado. It runs 802.11b,g & n. If that helps any one?

I'm not sure of that. My service is 15 mbps and it does just fine. My service provider is Time Warner and the RCA DCM425 was the modem they supplied, but you might contact your service provider and ask, or go to their website and check. Provider's websites will usually show which devices work with their system. That modem is a DOCSIS 2 and 50mbps may very well require a DOCSIS 3 modem.

Yeah, that's kinda what I deduced it to. I ended up buying the 655 last week and it works beautifully. I tested my internet connection speed wired and then wireless on a different floor of my house and the wireless was just as fast! Waaaay better than my old D-link G model.

I found it to be exactly the same. The only difference being the gigabit WAN support. Old one would top out at ~70 and this one easily handles our 100/20

I just did research on this and you can but you can only use it as a rauter not a modem for centurylink

It works fine. However, it's a pain to get it configured. I had to spend some time on the CenturyLink support line to get it working. There are over a dozen screwy little settings that all have to be perfect to make the connection. I think that's CentryLinks problem though. They want you to 'rent' a modem from them, so they make it the biggest pain possible to use your own. You have to pry each setting you need out of them over the phone. So yes, this modem will do the job. Expect pain from CenturyLink no matter what modem you use.

I recently purchased this. Prior to doing so, I spoke with Time Warner Cable about its compatibility and they confirmed this was a compatible modem/router combo. All TWC networks operate at half duplex. The specs for this modem are listed at full duplex. As such, the purported 343Mbps is correct, but TWC networks will not be capable of that speed, regardless of service level.

I have this hooked up to Century link and have it configured with My Wireless Modem works great but took alot of searching on Internet to find the right config.
