    The router functions as router and Wi-Fi for the DSL line eliminating extra hardware.

    Sadly this is the third C1000 router/modem I've had to purchase in the past year. The first one just stopped working for no apparent reason, the second one was brought home which then proceeded to fail within the first hour of use, and finally this one has been working for the past 3 weeks. I don't have a lot of faith in this product, or the company who manufactures it, but until there's another more reliable option to use with Century Link, this is really the only modem/router that will work. Other providers aren't an option, and as such we're stuck with this flaming pile for Internet access.

    Good unit if you have a smaller area and want to use the built in wifi. If you have a better coverage you might want add a range extender.

    There are NO instructions regarding what any of the buttons mean. Also there are no hints for troubleshooting. Without the box working, we didn't have internet to figure out why the internet wasn't working & when called the help line they were clueless.

    It works great and I just hope it lasts! I have gone through a lot of modem/routers, but refuse to rent them from my internet carrier!

    I tried two of these and could not get either to work with my ISP who is not CenturyLink. The DSL function worked fine, but I could not configure it to work with my assigned static IP address. I exchanged it for an ActionTec unit which was fully configurable and works well for my application

    I purchased the unit since I am a CenturyLink subscriber and it was "blessed" as being the best for my service. Set-up was pretty straightforward with the on-line instructions getting me operational quickly. I have a two computer wireless network with a shared wireless printer and now have to reset the modem 2-3 times a week to restore full functionality (2nd computer loses internet access, printer can not be addressed, network locks up, etc.). Pretty disappointed.

    I was forced by Century Link to buy this router/modem. It is slow and the wifi router is not as fast as I am used to. It was a very hard purchase as Best Buy did not have any in my area.

    Does what its supposed to do. Unfortunately can only be used with century link service (if you're in an area with more than one dsl provider)
