Thereโs a new trend of actions taken by big ISPs to preempt and suppress the authority of local governments. #ATT #Comcast #Verizon #CenturyLink

so yeah that's it. #centurylink allows only two dhcp leases per customer. and if you used both you have to wait for them to expire before connecting a different device (or maybe you can release, but apparently #ios doesnt have dhcp renew/release options anymore).
That must be why. If they only allowed one, and you changed your router, it would not work until the old lease expires.
Not that anyone here cares, but my recent sentiments regarding #CenturyLink are only deepening.
Who is the next wireless carrier I can switch to so I can hate them too (no MVNOs please)?
I hate #Verizon and would like to hate someone else, any suggestions?
A while ago I quit #Comcast because I got tired of hating them so now I hate #CenturyLink

#centurylink moved its fiber customers over to #quantum fiber. Iโve now had more #outages this week with quantum fiber than I think Iโve had with CenturyLink in over a year
#centurylink #Quantum #outages
How suspicious should I be of a #CenturyLink router spontaneously resetting to factory-default SSID?
I'm really surprised no one is talking about the recent debacle of the #CenturyLink / #Lumen to #QuantumFiber migration. It has been a spectacular failure, and it is still ongoing.
Timeline and details to follow.

Beware the roach motel.
"Cancel Service" is located in a reasonably placed section of the account home after logging in.
Clicking the button leads to a screen asking whether to cancel some or all services.
Ticking "all" reveals a set of selections to indicate the reason. Options include: moving, another provider for speed, another provider for price, financial hardship, military, deceased, disaster, and other.

Looks like there's a big #CenturyLink outage. Fiber seems still connected but modem says internet is "connecting". Locally overriding DNS didn't work. Down Detector showing nationwide impact.

#CenturyLink cancelled my service over #DMCA notices and now they email me every month to fill out a survey about why I switched back to #Xfinity.
Lose my fucking email!
