PK5000Z Quick Start
Guide
3
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.
