PK5000Z Quick Start
Guide

1 Hardware Connections
1 DSL: Use the gray telephone wire to connect your PK5000Z’s DSL port to a telephone jack (or to
the
modem port on a splitter if you are using
one).
2 ETHERNET: Use the yellow Ethernet cable to connect a computer to an ETHERNET port for
initial
configuration and/or Internet
access.
3 POWER: Use the included power adaptor to connect an appropriate power source to the POWER
socket.
Make sure the power source is
on.
4 Push in the POWER
button.
5 Look at the lights on the front
panel.
The POWER light blinks while your PK5000Z starts up and stays on once it is
ready.
Each ETHERNET light stays on if the corresponding ETHERNET port is properly connected and blinks
when
there is
traffic.
The DSL light is on when the PK5000Z has a DSL
connection.
The INTERNET light is on when you are able to access the Internet and blinks when the PK5000Z
is
sending or receiving data. Wait a couple of minutes while your device checks the
connection.
If any of these lights are not on, check your connections and inspect your cables for damage. If the lights
are
still off, contact your local
vendor.
2 Internet Connection Setup: Automatic
Use this section to have your PK5000Z automatically detect and set up your Internet
connection.
1 Open your web browser to a website. Wait while your PK5000Z tries to detect your DSL connection to
your
ISP. This may take a few
minutes.
2 After it detects the connection, the DSL light shows green on your device and the Internet light comes
on
when the Internet is ready for you to use. If you have a PPPoE connection, you will have to enter your
user
name and
password.
3 Go to section 3 if you wish to configure your wireless
settings.
4 If you do not see the connection test screen, or the connection test is not successful, follow the
instructions
in the screen below, or check your connections and restart the PK5000Z. If you still cannot
access
the
Internet, follow the steps in section
3.
3 Configuring
your
Wireless Settings
To create a wireless network, the PK5000Z and your wireless computer must all use the same
SSID
(network name), channel and security
settings.
If you do not set wireless security then anyone within range could use your PK5000Z to access
your
network and the
Internet.
Choose WPA-PSK wireless security if your wireless device supports it as it is stronger than WEP.
Otherwise
choose
WEP.

Troubleshooting
1 If you cannot access the web
configurator,
Your computer may be set to use a static IP address in a different subnet from the ZyXEL device. See
the
appendix in the Users Guide for information on setting up your IP
address.
If you are using Internet Explorer in Windows XP or Windows Server 2003, make sure you allow
pop-up
windows, JavaScripts and Java permissions or set the Internet security level lower than High in
Internet
Explorer (in Internet Explorer, click Tools > Internet Options > Security > Custom Level...). See
the
appendix in the User’s Guide for more
information.
2 If you cannot access the Internet when your computer is connected to the ETHERNET port, follow
these
steps.
A) Check the lights on the front panel. If they are different from what is described in section 1, make
sure
the PK5000Z is correctly connected. (See section 1.) If the lights are still different, turn off the
device,
wait a few seconds, and turn it on
again.
B) Check you have correctly entered the informatinon your ISP gave you. For example, if your account
has
a user name and password, make sure you type it correctly. In addition, if you are not sure
which
encapsulation your ISP uses, contact your ISP. If your ISP did not give you Internet
connection
information, follow the steps in section
2.
C) If you are using a new Internet account, contact your ISP to make sure it is
active.
D) If you still have problems, see Troubleshooting in the User’s
Guide.
If you cannot access the Internet after you take the steps above, either try the following or contact your
ISP:
E) Turn your PK5000Z off and on. Open your Internet browser if it is not already
open.
Let the PK5000Z complete the DSL connection test (this may take several minutes). See section 2
for
details.
If the test is successful, check whether you can access the
Internet.
F) If the test is unsuccessful or if you cannot access the Internet, log in to the PK5000Z’s
web
configurator (see section
3).
Click Network > WAN > Internet Connection. Ensure that the settings in this screen are the same
as
those your ISP gave you. If your ISP gave you a static IP address to use, select Static IP Address
in
the IP Address section and enter it in the IP Address field. If not, select Obtain an IP Address
Auto-
matically. Click
Apply
.
Click the wizard icon ( ). Run the Internet/Wireless Setup wizard again. Check whether you
can
access the
Internet.
If you still cannot access the Internet, take the following
steps:
If you are using Bridge mode (check Mode in the Network > WAN > Internet Connection screen)
click
NAT > General and ensure Active Network Address Translation (NAT) is not selected. Click LAN
>
DHCP Setup and ensure that DHCP is set to None. Your ISP gives your computer an IP
address
directly. If you want to access the PK5000Z again, you need to use a static IP address in the
same
subnet as your PK5000Z (the PK5000Z’s default IP address is http://192.168.0.1).
Click the wizard icon ( ). Run the Internet/Wireless Setup wizard again. Check whether you
can
access the
Internet.
If you still cannot access the Internet, contact your Internet Service
Provider.
