D6200 compatibility with CenturyLink

Hi, I am trying to figure out if the Netgear D6200 (AC1200) will be compatible with my DSL service from CenturyLink, but am having trouble finding information on this. I contacted CTL, and my service is as follows:

-VDSL

-not bonded

-does have DSL vectoring

Does anyone know if this modem will work with my service? Thanks in advance!

   The "ADSL" in that description is suggestive.

 

   Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation.  Get some.  Read.  The Product Data Sheet says:

 

      Built-in ADSL2+ Modem

 

> -not bonded

 

   Good thing:

   I'd guess that that'd come along with VDSL, but I know nothing.

   Not at full VDSL rates, at least.  It's possible that the equipment
at the CenturyLink end might negotiate a lower-speed (ADSL) connection,
but I wouldn't bet on it.

 

   There's a D6220 which claims:

 

      High-speed VDSL2/ADSL2+ modem built-in
