    My Century Link Modem died recently so I had to replace it. I chose to purchase the recommended modem rather than a different cheaper one. Glad I did this modem was a breeze to set up.

    After 6 years of trying to connect to the internet with a hot spot on a cell phone (with bad reception I might add!) it is wonderful being able to connect to the internet! Thank you!

    This modem was easy to install, but I have had continuous problems since. My wireless devices regularly lose connectivity with the modem, it took forever to get my DTV receivers connected, and even though all lights on the modem show connectivity I lose internet connection on my desktop (which is hardwired) at least once a day and have to unplug and restart the modem. This has not been a good experience.

    This wireless router and access point was a vast improvement over the standard issue Qwest Motorola modem. Faster wireless speed, better range and no dropped connections!

    With this combo I can get all the tech support I might need thru century link and that does not expire in a year like it did with a net gear combo I had previously.

    My view is tainted somewhat by my experience with CenturyLink. Truth in advertising, I cancelled my CenturyLink contract less than one hour in; glad I did. Not a good experience. That said, the router/modem does not have very good range. Beyond 50 feet, beyond 1 or 2 walls and the dropoff in speed is dramatic. Not a good choice.
