    After getting CenturyLink activated just had to call Tech support to get the modem online. Was fast and easy. Way better than the rental modem CenturyLink provides.

    This modem/router was easy set up & works good. I do find it needs to set on top of cabinet or something that doesn't block the signal around it.
