What to Do If CenturyLink Is Down

If you are having trouble accessing CenturyLink, try these troubleshooting steps before concluding that the service is experiencing an outage.

1

Check your internet connection

Before assuming CenturyLink is down, verify that your internet connection is working. Try loading a different website like google.com. If other sites also fail to load, the problem is with your connection, not CenturyLink.

2

Clear your browser cache and cookies

Corrupted cache data can prevent CenturyLink from loading properly. Clear your browser cache and cookies, then try again. In most browsers you can do this from Settings > Privacy > Clear Browsing Data.

3

Try a different browser or device

If CenturyLink does not load in your current browser, try a different one (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). You can also try accessing CenturyLink from your phone or a different computer to rule out device-specific issues.

4

Flush your DNS cache

Stale DNS records can prevent your device from connecting to CenturyLink. On Windows, open Command Prompt and run "ipconfig /flushdns". On Mac, open Terminal and run "sudo dscacheutil -flushcache". On Linux, run "sudo systemd-resolve --flush-caches".

5

Try using a VPN

If CenturyLink is blocked in your region or your ISP is having routing issues, connecting through a VPN may resolve the problem. This is especially helpful if CenturyLink works for others but not for you.

6

Check for outages in your area

Telecom providers like CenturyLink can have localized outages. Check CenturyLink's outage map on their official website or app. You can also call CenturyLink's automated outage line to check if there is a known issue in your area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is CenturyLink down right now?
This page shows the real-time status of CenturyLink based on automated monitoring by Qodex. The status badge at the top of the page updates every 60 seconds. If CenturyLink is experiencing issues, you will see a "Down" or "Degraded" indicator along with details about when the problem was first detected.
Why is CenturyLink not working?
There are several reasons CenturyLink might not be working for you: (1) CenturyLink could be experiencing a server-side outage affecting all users; (2) your internet connection may be down or unstable; (3) your DNS cache may be stale; (4) a regional network issue could be affecting your connection to CenturyLink's servers; or (5) CenturyLink may be performing scheduled maintenance. Check the uptime chart above to see if our monitors are also detecting issues.
How long do CenturyLink outages usually last?
Most CenturyLink outages are resolved within 30 minutes to 2 hours. Major outages affecting all users are typically addressed as a top priority by CenturyLink's engineering team. Minor or regional outages may take longer to resolve. You can monitor the situation in real time on this page, which updates automatically.
Where can I report a CenturyLink outage?
You can report issues with CenturyLink through their official status page or support channels at https://centurylink.net. You can also check social media platforms like Twitter/X for reports from other users. This Qodex monitoring page provides an independent, automated check of CenturyLink's availability.
Is CenturyLink down just for me?
If this page shows CenturyLink as "Operational" but you cannot access it, the issue is likely on your end. Try these steps: clear your browser cache, try a different browser or device, restart your router, try using a VPN, or check if your ISP is experiencing issues. If our monitors also show problems, it is a widespread issue.
How can I get notified when CenturyLink goes down?
You can set up free uptime monitoring alerts with Qodex. Sign up at qodex.ai and configure a monitor for CenturyLink (or any website). You will receive instant notifications via email, Slack, or webhook whenever CenturyLink goes down or comes back up.
