About CenturyLink
CenturyLink keeps it simple when it comes to internet—you can either get the DSL plan or the fiber-optic plan. The fiber plan comes at an unbeatable price for what you get, and both fiber and DSL give you unlimited data. Fiber is certainly the better way to go—it has gigabit speeds (perfect for a large household and lots of streaming and gaming) and comes with installation and a router at no extra cost. Installation otherwise runs you $15 for standard or $99 for professional.
Why choose CenturyLink?
You get a straight deal from CenturyLink—no need to worry about misleading promotions or sky-high price hikes here. Get the fiber internet plan for all the speed you need to stream, game, download, and Zoom on a multitude of devices. The DSL plan has more modest speeds, but it gives you unlimited data, so that’s a plus.
Pros:
- Fast speeds on fiber
- Easy setup
- No data caps
- Fair pricing
Cons:
- Limited fiber availability
- Relatively slow speeds on DSL
- No more Price for Life guarantee like it used to have
How does CenturyLink compare against competitors?
CenturyLink’s fiber internet plan beats out most cable providers like Cox, Spectrum, and Xfinity because it gives you faster speeds at a cheaper price. It also comes with unlimited data and no annual contract, which you don’t always get from a cable internet provider. However, CenturyLink’s DSL deal doesn’t quite compare to Cox and Xfinity’s budget plans, which cost less (at least in the first 12 months) and come with faster speeds.
AT&T is CenturyLink’s main fiber competitor. It has a wider range of fiber plans that all come at decent prices. But CenturyLink’s gigabit plan is $15 cheaper per month than AT&T’s, so we like CenturyLink more (although both are solid).
