Does this modem work with CenturyLink? Don't want to pay over $100. I don't need wifi. Just a good modem.

Yes! It works perfectly. 10+ mbps. Just Google PPPOE setup if you have trouble connecting the first time.

I have installed this modem for my mother-in-law as a replacement for a CenturyLink DSL modem. It works great!

I have comcast and this modem works fine for me.....but they keep asking me to change it and purchase the newer model which can accept higher speeds. Unless you are paying for a top internet speed from your provider you don't need the upgrade to this modem. This is a DOCSIS 2.0 modem and the newer one is the DOCSIS 3.0 modem....with a higher price. I guess this item is the "older" one but it works well with many providers (I've been told) and it's definately easy to set up. I'd check out both modems and see if the upgrade is something you want or need.

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

I have Comcast and am not familiar with Century Link. However, I believe it is universal as my daughter has one and uses it with Century Link.

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.

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.

There is a 7500 available on Amazon but the 7501 is just a Router & has wireless just no modem I didn't read close enough. It is easy to set up though. (I answered this just wanted to add abput the 7500 being on Amazon as well

No, you are not compelled to use the PK5001z with Century link. If you go to the Century Link website they will give you a list of routers/modems that are compatible with the service. Sometimes it may be a regional necessity to use a certain type of unit though. I use the PK5001z simply because it is the easiest and fastest broadcast for my purposes. It is easily compatible with all my peripherals, some very old and some new.

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.

There must be two versions of this model; one does not wprk with Time Warner.So that I did not have to pay rent , I bought one. The phone would not work with mine. They told me to hook up the phone to the modem that was theirs; using a splitter I hooked it up and it set along side the modem that I bought. (Yes it is dumb because the modem supplied by TimeWarner did everything( internet , phone and tv) ) . They told me to keep their modem and they would not charge me for it. Go figure.

Yes, the UPVEL UR-344AN4G+ works with Centurylink ADSL service. It offers ADSL modem with router functionality and WIFI.

The one I purchased for my sister did have a modem, but with WiFi, she isn't using it since her internet connection is via her cable modem and WiFi router. (I can't imagine it wouldn't have one since most of these computers are returns from business leases) If you are still concerned, I recommend you call the seller and ask to be sure. PS, you might also ask if they will include the Windows re-install disc so if the hard drive dies, you will be able to re-install Windows without having to lay out the cash to buy it. Mine did not come with the disc, but they sent it upon request. It likely will NOT have MS Office or other software with it - just windows XP. Good luck!

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.

Yes I do believe that will work for you.. It is supported by Century Link & should work just fine. Just sign in with your DSL user name & password, and you should be up & running right away.

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.

This modem doesn't do wifi. You need a wireless router for that. It does work for comcast though. I actually had to find a comcast employee to upgrade the software on this device through a comcast forum because my internet turned on and off every five minutes. It has not had a problem since I got that done. And works great.
