Overview
Not a standalone router for any provider, the CenturyLink unit combines a bonded DSL modem with a dual band router. It runs one network name across the home and supports wide channels for compatible laptops and phones.
Pairing a bonded DSL modem with a newer Wi-Fi radio upgrades wireless speed for CenturyLink homes in one box. Real internet speed is capped by the DSL line, and the listing names no included accessories.
Who it's for
CenturyLink customers replacing an old modem or wanting a faster home Wi-Fi network on the same line. Customers of other providers cannot use its DSL side.
Pros and cons
- Bonded DSL modem built in
- Wide channel support
- Single network name
- Four LAN ports
- Tied to CenturyLink DSL
- Box contents not listed
- Internet speed limited by DSL line
Performance notes
Wi-Fi throughput inside the home can far exceed the DSL line, so internet speed is set by the CenturyLink plan rather than the radio. Wide channels and denser modulation help newer devices close to the router. Bonding combines two phone lines for more line speed.
