Configure WAN settings on your CenturyLink modem

WAN settings allow you to change the protocol and addressing type required by CenturyLink for internet access.

Do not change these modem settings unless instructed by a CenturyLink technician or working with an IT professional.

Note:  Your modem settings may appear slightly different from the images below, but the steps will be the same.

These instructions are for newer CenturyLink modems. If you have an older modem, follow these instructions.
