(Possibly advanced civilizations don't use radio or light for
communication, maybe they have quantum entaglement transceivers or some
other unknown technology?)

Quantum entanglement is a property of photons or particles, which travel
at the speed of light for photons or less for particles.

In the case of photons, they are using light (or radio for lower
frequencies). In the case of particles, much much slower.

Hopefully they are not using gamma ray bursts for communication.

Quantum entanglement is not well understood "spooky action at a distance"
has been described as instantaneous "Entanglement, the "spooky" effect in
which far-distant particles appear to influence one another
instantaneously" http://focus.aps.org/story/v10/st29 or ""spooky action at
a distance" -- somehow one particle manages to tell the other
*instantaneously* what its spin was measured to be"
http://www.fnal.gov/pub/inquiring/qu...anglement.html
although others state that no information can be transferred
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_entanglement. Whether light or other
particles are used and then separated to large distance by conventional
means, the book may not be entirely closed on instantaneous information
transfer.
