Q1000Z VDSL2 Modem & Wireless Router

This router is awesome. I'm getting 6.15mbps out of the 7 promised by Centurylink. I didn't expect them to deliver more than three really so this is incredible. The device can be connected to many things at once and still function well. I've had over twenty tabs open and loading at once on my browser while watching netflix on three devices. I haven't had it get hot but have been unplugging it when not in use to make it last longer. The connection remains steadier and fast if you don't leave your modems plugged in 24 hours a day. That's just common electrical sense, if it gets a break it lives longer. It didn't come with anything at all beside the modem, an ethernet cable, and the power cord. That is all. I purchased a phone cord for under five dollars and it worked great with it. Centurylink even had it mostly setup for me without even coming to my house. (I configured the settings already for the wireless network and connected to it using a web browser at 192.168.0.1. It came setup for some other user but I did a factory reset on it in case the person was a genius and was having the data sent to him.

Very disappointed in this purchase. First, we were shipped the wrong power cord for this modem, so couldn't even use it when we got it. When we finally got shipped the correct power cord, the modem ran very slow. After 3 months, it completely stopped working. We did a bunch of troubleshooting and the modem was faulty. Huge waste of time and money, and unfortunately it's past the return period. We had to go buy a new modem after only 3 months - would definitely not recommend this one.

My old Century Link modem quit working properly. I called CenturyLink and they recommended another modem, but when I looked on Amazon it had poor reviews. I bought this one after reading positive reviews. It has worked easily right out of the box. I haven't had any trouble with it and have been using it about a month. Am satisfied with my purchase. Also this seller shipped within an hour and I received it several days ahead of the estimate, altho I'm only one state away so VERY satisfied with seller.

Didn't connect to the ISP for me but seemed to work fine otherwise. Will probably work just fine for someone else if they know how to fiddle with the settings better than me. Seller was very receptive and prompt on the return and refund, would recommend.

didn't get what was advertised, missing a lot, just got router

So it was cheap and came with a power adapter, phone cord, and cat 5e cable. However it appears as if it was rolling around in the bed of someone's truck for a few months. Thankfully all I need it for is the DSL connection in a hall closet. Would not put it out on a desk or somewhere it would be seen because it looks as if it was dug out of a dumpster. It works just fine though so it fits my needs for now.

One star rating is not a fair rating considering the device may have not been compatible with my internet service provider. My internet service provider partnered with Century Link. Currently I have a Century Link modem whose performance is not satisfactory. Reviews for VDSL modems indicated Zyxel to have better performance. Unfortunately, I was unable to get Zyxel to connect my computer. It also would not connect to the internet. Seller was responsive and am returning the modem.

Plugs in and was up within seconds after SN was verified with CenturyLink and connection username and password applied.I haven't used the wireless function since I have my own. Interface is easy to use once you type in the IP address in the browser.
