I can't really say if they were lying, but i'm pretty sure they should still have some separate modems. I would just get a separate router and modem you will have a better experience if you do in my opinion.

We quickly got tired of the crappy combo. Luckily my brother in law had his old qwest modem we just plugged right in and got a new router.



yea ima have to look into it
because there combo has horrible range

thanks :D

No problem. Our Centurlink tech assigned the wrong outlet for just internet since we have 7 phone outlets so all of us are wireless on our devices lol. We got a router that can handle it all. I guess our modem can handle higher speeds with just a firmware update.

If you are wondering we have the (Actiontec) qwest m1000 modem. You can get one on Amazon still, but for that price I wonder if it is better to get a pure Docsis modem. :P

With my phone I can go a block and a half away and still be connected to our Wifi.

Wow lol. Wonder if the range extending option, whatever it's called, is off. I tried looking around for a docsis and didn't find much online anyway. The m1000 on Amazon is ~85. If you do go that route and get that one I would make sure if your Centurylink still supports it (may depend on your location).

I looked into it and you can make your combo modem/router run soley as a modem but it requires so tweaking. So I guess it depends on how tech savvy you are.
