Customer Ratings & Reviews

Good product overall, easy setup. Range is not as good as I had hoped, but still suits our needs.

You will need this modem if you are on Centrylink fiber optics. Easy setup and works well, has decent range for wireless.

Setup is minimal and easy, where plugs go is clearly defined. It works quite well and I'm very pleased with it.

I had signed up for century link dsl again after having it previously. My old router wouldn't work and after a couple calls to tech support and talking to a local tech I found out that they had switched to vdsl. Luckily, my local best buy had this in stock. I was in and out of the store in under 5 minutes and had this hooked up and running in under 5 minutes. All of the interior boxes are clearly labeled so if you've done this before it's a breeze. The wireless portion works great, no issues connecting any of our multitude of game consoles, laptops, or mobile devices. I haven't had any issues with this router at all after a month, which also includes my cat laying on it for warmth.

Easy to setup, works as described. Giving this a 4 star rating due to not needing the wireless router capabilities. Wish there was just the modem available for purchase. Buying this in the store you save the shipping costs Century Link charges you to bring this to your house.

To start with, the selection of available VDSL2 modems is pathetic at best. Understandably this is a fairly new technology. My biggest gripe with the modem is that it runs way too hot. My router beside it doesn't even run anywhere near as hot as the modem. Also in the past with these kinds of modems, they require constant reboots. Before I decided I had no other options for modems and gave in to this one, I had to do a lengthy amount of research. The reboot issues seem to go away if you make the modem to a transparent bridge. So basically my modem is just an over glorified DSL Phone Line to Ethernet adapter. It works great for being this kind of a device, but that kind of functionality isn't something I'm okay with spending $100 on.

Works great after mine was on its last leg ! Easy to hook up and works great and it is wireless too! this works with Century Link DSL service!

It works really good and had no problems. Very easy set up and is the exact same model we were renting from CenturyLink and works the same.

This router replaced a much older ActionTec model and has greatly improved my speed on all computers. I was nervous to make the switch since the old one was working. But set up was quick and connected to all my computers and devices. Only issue was having to call Century Link as you have to set up a new name for your wireless network. I would recommend this if you have Century Link.

The router works quicker than the old one I had for 7 years. Easy to set up.

Pleased with this modem/wireless router. I could not get my printer to work, w/the modem/wireless router that you pay a monthly leasing fee to Centurylink. I read reviews, & found that the modem/router Centurylink leases to you, are usually refurbished & not up to date. I found this to be true, after purchasing this Centurylink modem/wireless router. I now have a working printer again, & the speed is a bit faster on my computer. I now own, instead of leasing from Centurylink & am very satisfied, & can print again!

So this is a great buy for the right price. No issues connecting, working perfectly, holding as good as speed as the ISP can provide.

Picked this up when our old modem died. Installation went really smooth and we were up and running in no time. Hasn't failed once.

This modem is easily to setup and configure. Works as you would expect

I'm not a fan of required or pushed products just because the company chose actiontec as their modem manufacturer. It was very easy to set up and has decent range in my basement but I will be looking at getting an extender or repeater since the signal upstairs is not as strong as I'd like

easy to install and understand. small enough to fit in hidden area

Upgraded from 20 to 40 mps, this router seems to handle it well.

This is the only modem/router that would work with CenturyLink as my internet provider, since it has a phone line connection.. I was able to follow the instructions and set it up fairly easily, but I had to call the CenturyLink help line in order to get the connection to work. The person instructing me did an excellent job.

I have better connectivity now than I had when using the modem supplied internet provider. It is the same brand, but apparently not an old, refurbished one (as I was told by someone over the phone). I would have liked a Netgear, but my service wouldn't support it.

I found this very sturdy, easy to use and small footprint!
