If your internet or phone service isn’t working, you can check for outages using the CenturyLink outage tool. HOW DO I RETURN MY MODEM? If you need to return your modem to CenturyLink, sign in as a guest on the UPS site, pack your modem following these instructions, then drop off the box off at any authorized UPS Shipping Center location near you. CAN I BRING MY OWN MODEM? We highly recommend using one of our certified or recommended WiFi modems. If your modem is not on the CenturyLink recommended modem list, it’s either a retired CenturyLink device or a third-party modem. SHOULD I USE 2.4 GHZ OR 5 GHZ WIFI? The difference between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WiFi comes down to speed and range. Use 5 GHz for a device closer to the router and 2.4 GHz for a device farther from the router. HOW DO I CHANGE MY WIFI PASSWORD? You can change your WiFi password from the CenturyLink app (for some modem models) or from your secure modem settings, which you can access on a computer or other connected device. Check for outages Enter your address and select from the drop-down below to check for area outages. Please be patient as it can take several seconds to search. Enter your address Check SORRY, WE CAN'T FIND AN ACCOUNT AT THAT ADDRESS. PLEASE SIGN IN TO MY CENTURYLINK TO VIEW OUTAGE INFORMATION. WE'RE SORRY, THERE IS AN OUTAGE AT YOUR ADDRESS. Sign up for outage updates. You will only receive updates related to this outage. Change Your information has been received. THERE IS NO OUTAGE DETECTED AT THIS ADDRESS.
