Re: Be Careful with Century Link
I have been with CenturyLink even before it was Qwest. I kinda gave up on CenturyLink for Verizon 5G Home Internet too.
CenturyLink was still stuck at 12Mbps/.7Mbps for me, and I seen the need for faster speeds. With Verizon 5G Home Internet, I get way better speeds.
