What you need to set up CenturyLink WiFi

Modem or gateway 

CenturyLink WiFi equipment includes either a modem or fiber gateway. Both receive data from the wired CenturyLink network in your area and translate that data into wireless radio frequencies to reach devices on your home network.

  • The CenturyLink WiFi modem supports Simply Unlimited plans up to 100 Mbps
  • The CenturyLink WiFi gateway supports fiber internet plans up to 940 Mbps
  • Both use dual-band frequencies (5 GHz and 2.5 GHz) to reach more devices, especially through walls
  • Both are programmed for CenturyLink network protocols, creating optimal WiFi performance

Extenders (optional)

If your home is notorious for WiFi dead spots, an extender may help. WiFi extenders, also known as “repeaters,” receive the radio waves from your primary WiFi equipment and rebroadcast them, creating a stronger signal in areas with weak coverage. Ask about extender options and pricing when you call to order CenturyLink internet.

Network configuration

Once you have your WiFi equipment, you’ll need to configure your new network before you start streaming or gaming. Usually, you just sign in to your modem or gateway with the credentials printed on the back, confirm a few security settings, and you’re good to go. Check your install kit for detailed instructions or leave it to your technician.

CenturyLink WiFi support and FAQs

How much is WiFi on CenturyLink?

With CenturyLink Fiber, your WiFi gateway is included in the monthly service rate. With Simply Unlimited, WiFi modem fees are about $17 per month or $200 upfront. Alternatively, you can bring your own WiFi equipment. Call 1-855-204-1848 today to confirm the latest equipment pricing or see if your personal modem is compatible.

How do I connect to CenturyLink WiFi?

If you’re new to CenturyLink and getting professional installation, your technician will set up your WiFi for you.

If you’re self-installing CenturyLink service, follow these steps:

  1. Plug in your equipment.
  2. Log in to your modem using the credentials on the back of the device.
  3. Follow the remaining instructions in your install kit to configure your network.
  4. Start using your new WiFi!

If you already have CenturyLink service and have lost your connection, try resetting your modem first. If that doesn’t work, search common support topics, start a chat, or call 1-800-244-1111 for assistance.

How do I reset my modem?

If your WiFi is lagging or you're unable to connect to the internet, try resetting your modem:

  1. Find the tiny reset button, usually located on the back of the modem.
  2. Using a pencil or pen tip, gently press and hold the button.
  3. Wait for the red and green lights on the front of your modem to flash, then release the button. 
  4. Wait for the “internet” button on the front of the modem to flash green. This can take up to 5 minutes. If you can’t reconnect after that point, contact CenturyLink support.
