Stop renting and save money by purchasing your own ADSL2+ modem+router. The p660hn-51 is compatible with most ADSL based internet connections, such as those provided by AT&T, CenturyLink, and Verizon as well as many other Providers using your phone line to provide internet service. Built in router, Wi-Fi, and 4 port switch make it easy to share your internet connection anywhere in the home and with no second box required. Includes a built-in setup Wizard and auto-detect feature to simplify the setup process by doing most of the configuration automatically. Please note This product only supports ADSL, ADSL2, and ADSL2+ internet services. Will not work with bonded ADSL, VDSL, fiber, or cable based internet Providers. If in doubt, contact your ISP first to verify what type of service you currently have

Replaced Centurylink modem

Excellent product, easy to set up, stable and reliable. Edit: December 26th and died. No help from ZyXEL, not even listed on the support site. I feel like I was burned by a discontinued product with no warranty.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • There are issues

Works great but not on Qlink

This is a great wireless router, but it doesn't have a Century Link interface to set up the device. Century Link technical service proves that a brain dead person can still live. I returned it and got one with the GUI of the Century. If you have a computer recycling center where you live, go there and buy one.

Pros
  • Looks great
Cons
  • Useless features

Good product, make sure it is safe to install.

The DSL modem is very good and provides a stable and reliable connection to my service provider. Make sure you go to the settings panel to make sure it's safe. I found several MAC addresses stored by external devices. Luckily, the MAC addressing feature has been disabled.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Excessive price

What's not to like?

After I disposed of the range extender and did a factory reset, it worked perfectly - and most importantly - with no constant reboots. The only caveat I would suggest is to ADD another login/password with admin privileges and once that is done hacking the default "admin" whose pwd is 1234. You must of course save and not forget the userid and password, but I suppose if you do you should be able to recover this by doing a factory reset.

Pros
  • shines
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Couldn't figure it out

I have (had) an AT&T DSL. My AT&T modem died and they wanted $100 for a new one that would take longer to arrive than the Revain, so I ordered this one. Arrived quickly, new, no complaints. I believe this will probably work, it has all the necessary inputs for DSL, but the configuration is neither obvious nor easy. Even after calling AT&T tech support, they couldn't figure it out. I'm not a techie, but I'm not an idiot either. I just don't know what all these terms and numbers mean or are…

Pros
  • cool stuff
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was

This unit works with our Century Link service, although other reviewers say it doesn't.

Arrived safely. Before receiving my order, I went back to the Revain product page for more information about the device. While doing this I read 2 reviews stating that this device does not work with Century Link even though it is advertised as doing so. When I received it, based on the information in the reviews, I sent it back almost immediately. However, I decided to give it a try. The device works perfectly with the Century Link DSL that we have. It automatically detected a DSL connection…

Pros
  • I hold my fists
Cons
  • Reliability
