could I replace my CenturyLink dsl modem with this modem router

In my case I was not replacing a manufacurer's DSL. But, in leu of purchasing the manufacturer's product (AT&T;) I bought this one and I was able to hook it up and install and configure the software with very little difficulty. I struggled with inputting the correct server POP but after a couple tries I got it right. I have had no trouble or interruptions of service due to the product, I have been satisfied with router.

I am looking at my box and it does say compatible with CenturyLink DSL (on the front of the box). I have AT&T; which also the box states is compatible - so we will see shortly.

If you are talking about AT&T; DSL then your answer is yes. You will want to put the modem in pass through mode which your ISP can help you with. I have had very good luck with this router. You may need to power cycle it once in a while. That is fairly normal for most home routers/access points in my experience.

Hi,Thank you for emailing me. If your DSL modem uses a RJ-45 connection you will be able to use this router. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.Regards,Andrew SchearerOperations Manager"Like" us at facebook.com/reforgerdirect

You should double check with Comcast to ensure that you can use this product with your specific plan, but in general, yes! -- this router is designed to replace an existing cable modem or cable modem/router combination.

No, this is a DSL router only. You would need to buy a cable internet router.

It connects to CenturyLink just fine, but the Wi-Fi performance is poor. I had to return two of these routers due to poor Wi-Fi range. I recommend the TP-Link TD-W8968 instead.

I am no longer using this, but I had 20 Mbps service on CenturyLink and would get 14-20 Mbps. I think that 20 was the max it would support. Be sure you update to the latest firmware. This router has a lot of features including some advanced port forwarding. I just needed more speed than I could get with POTS and went to cable. I had some problems and leased a modem from CenturyLink, but found that the problem was in the phone wiring. This Actiontec actually worked better than the new modem.

possibly, I have century link supposedly with their new form of DSL+ which everything said I should be able to configure it to work, but It didn't so I returned it.

This works that way when using a router from Century Link. I think the Century Link router has a built in filter that allows this to work this way. I have not tried this with any other router.

NO! The ethernet router would need to be configured to accept a DSL signal; that isn'

this is not a Modem, it is a Router. With Century Link you must use their router. However, you may turn their router into a Bridge, this you have to call Century link to assist you. Then you may use this device as your router. This is a router with substantial features and a bargain for the price.

I don't see why it wouldn't. I haven't used DSL, but I assume it has a modem device similar to a cable modem like the one I have been using. This router plugs into that rather than directly to the DSL line. That said, I didn't have good experience with this router and would recommend against it.

My experience was with AT&T; DSL so I can't say for certain how it will work with Centurylink.

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.

Yes, you would also need the modem. The internet provider I am currently using provided the modem, but I needed to purchase the router - so it is not "all in one".

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
