My DSL internet modem went out. I could buy one straight out from Amazon or rent one from CenturyLink for the rest of my life. I was unable to find one anywhere else. It did not have the ethernet cord with it but I had just bought a new one anyone. Works great and it arrived quickly

At first I plugged it in to be wireless like my last router, which I'm sending back to CenturyLink to save $10/month. I'd get at least 20mbps with the old one on 2.4GHz and my phone had a strong signal no matter where I was in my apartment. This router did almost 9mbps at best and have weak signal on my phone when in the bathroom which is only a few yards away. I now have my laptop hard wired which is at the mbps level it should be at based on my service but not too happy about having to watch my phone. Everywhere else in the apartment seems to be okay, but this modem router combo isn't getting the WiFi signal strength I read it would have. It will do. At 7 months service I'll start saving.

Replaced a rented modem from Century Link after 6 years. I got the PK5001Z, the newer rendition of the one that lasted for 6 years. However, this modem will not work with faster internet speeds I just learned. I could upgrade from 20 to 40 speed, and this modem would have to be replaced. I would really like to do that but since I just bought it it will have to do for awhile.

I delayed purchasing a modem for years, and instead paid the ridiculous rental fee of $11/mo (which started out as $5/mo which CLink replaced once with a USED unit). The modem arrived quickly, came with good instructions, and was very easy to install--and works every bit as well as the overpriced rental.

The unit hooked up ok, but then again I am have plenty of IT experience. Without the help of Century link or someone else who knows about the PPOE that CenturyLink uses, best to buy something else. As I said it linked ok, using the proper settings. Within a few weeks this modem is rebooting several times a day without rhyme or reason. I have looked into things others have complained about such as wireless printers causing the issue, but I can not confirm this, as the unit reboots with or without any wireless printers connected. Now for the strange part, even with WPS disabled it somehow flashes red and throws a device connection error, even going so far as to show a device that has tried to connect via the WPS protocol. But looking at the Mac, there could not possibly be any device with that address connecting. Makes one think that there might be hack attempts going on, but with the firewalls I run, that could not be possible. My network logger does not show any activity during the time this WPS error happens, no incoming activity anyway, and all windows and sub processes are strictly monitored, with no unusual activity recorded in or out. So as of now, I can not ID the reason it seems to need to reboot, other then it seems to happen when incoming traffic reaches 1/2 of my Century link data (overhead considered) limit. Reboot time is between 1 to 7 minutes depending on the time of day. I will be looking for a new Modem. Actually I think its CenturyLink purposely fouling the router because I didn't buy it directly from them. Not too likely but hay who knows

Could not get it to work with my internet. Was trying to use it as an extra modem in my living room but it needs to be hooked up as a bridge. Still working on that. Had an adapter on the plug in going to modem. Don't know what that was about

It really is funny how people write all sorts of nonsense about a product. For the most part not too many people are able to read the directions. Why? Because they are not smart enough. If it doesn't do what they want as soon as they plug it in, then they call a support number and say it is defective. Too bad they didn't wire it properly or setup the link with their IP provider. If you read some of the feedback they seem to have problems with spelling, and proper grammar. They don't even know the difference between your and you're or their and there. HUH?The unit works perfectly. Setup gives you the opportunity to adjust the parameters to any configuration you may need. Broadcast and security are excellent. Just read the directions..........And put down the iPhone.

This unit is a Router / Modem.I have been using the unit for over a year with know major problems. It was recommend by Century Link because this is one of the units that they use. This makes it nice since they are familiar with the unit and will help you with any setup problems that you have. The only thing I had to do so far as setup goes, was to contact Century Link to get their username and password to connect to their system, after that setup was a breeze. I purchased the unit because I didn't want to pay Century Link their month rental charge, if it lasts another couple of months I will get my purchase price back for not paying the rental fee. The only problem I had with the unit was it locked up twice and a simple power reset brought it back to full operation, this may have been caused by a interruption or glitch on the service line. I would recommend it to anyone that has a Century Link DSL connection. I not sure how it works with other companies.Unit has additional features like programmable WIFI weekly day and time operation.
