CenturyLink DSL
September 25, 2026 Very poor service. I pay for 12mbs, my speed is consistently below 5mbs, and latency runs up to 1.5 SECONDS at times. Video is buffering every 5 - 10 min for 2 -3 min, web pages load very slowly. I call support and the schedule for 2 - 3 weeks out. When the techs came out, multiple times, they are not able fix or improve the DSL. I have not had dial tone for 2 weeks. Time for a provider change.
