User questions & answers

Question:	Will this unit work with our centurylink adsl service
Answer:	I think the main difference is that the C3000Z's wireless is 5G compatible.
Question:	How is this different/better than the C1100Z
Answer:	CenturyLink installed the C3000Z as the router to use for their gigabit fiber service - so yes, it does work with 1gb from CenturyLink. I wouldn't call it a modem, although they refer to it as such because that's what most people think is used to connect to the Internet but it is a decent enough router for most people's needs. We'll be upgrading to an ASUS router in the near future for more flexible configuration and better penetration in our home.
Question:	Can this modem handle 1gb from Century Link
Answer:	Yes, I have Centutylink with a bonded connection and run Netgear for my router
Question:	Does this support bridge mode so you can use your own router
Answer:	Just wanted to say that the set up was fairly easy, but NetGear was great to make sure we had all completed. Their customer service was very impressive. I recently upgraded to a higher speed via Windstream and it came with a new router/dsl unit and so far so good, BUT I will be reconfiguring and going back to the NETGEAR unit when I have time.

• 4 ethernet LAN ports
• Line Filters
• WIFI

I used this modem in my home for 1 year during a promotional period with CenturyLink. After the year, I the price jumped so I used a promotion deal from another company. The modem worked flawlessly during my 12 months of use. Didn't require reboots, network never went down. I took photos of all sides to show you that this modem looks brand new.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a modem and router or just modem
Answer:	Newer YES, improved in design & footprint YES. Both are wireless N but C1100z is better signal & speed consistency from what I have experienced. Both are wireless N, not sure why this was not released with Wireless AC but it is a noticeable difference regardless.
Question:	does it work with time warner
Answer:	Yes, but don't add it as a router, you only want one of those and it should be running DHCP. Whatever you add as your second one, have it set up as a wireless AP. I have a C1100Z one side of my home and an ASUS RT-AC66U set up as an AP at the other side.
Question:	Do u have to have a carrier
Answer:	Dedicated AC adapter.
Question:	Is this compatible with Century Link (ADSL
Answer:	Hi, This product does not work with COVR-3902-US to create a mesh network.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can anyone tell me what the lihgts mean on the front? All of them
Answer:	I dont remember if it came with instructions or not, but connecting an external router is very simple. Simply use a Category V network cable to connect any of the ports on the modem to the Internet or WAN input on the router. Also, the modem itself does come with built in router and WiFi functionality so, most likely you dont need to connect an external router anyway.
Question:	Can't get our tablet to connect to WiFi. Tablet says to punch the WPS button the front. Will it affect Roku or computer
Answer:	I myself didn't need to. It automatically set up after I connected it.
Question:	Can the zyxel pk5001z be used to replace a zyxel c1000z
Answer:	Yes, It may work with Docsis but better ask you internet service provider if this unit works with them.
Question:	Is this router dual band
Answer:	No, it will not work. This is at least a 5 year old technology with a slow speed. The recommended wind stream modems are: Motorola MD1600 Actiontech GT784 WN Netgear R7000

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this come with power adapter and Ethernet cables
Answer:	Supposedly. Best to check with your DSL provider. It wouldn't work at all with CenturyLink.
Question:	Does this come with the power cord and any ethernet cords
Answer:	Nope don’t waist your money century link came out fixed my lines and upgraded me then changed my monthly bill and set it for life at 45 bucks a month it was the lines that was the issue my monthly bill went down they sent it thrue email in writing so I’m more than satisfied with century link now and wishi didn’t waste the money if you have regular phone line this is where your issues lie not the box
Question:	Did this modem only works wireless, or can i used it lan too
Answer:	Not sure if i understand the question. this is just a modem, its doesn't integrate wireless so you'll need seperate device for wireless. Unless your talking about packet loss over a long cat5 cable. it seems to work fine for running cables, but i'm not sure how you measure that.
Question:	vyxel PK50012 WIRELESS MODEM
Answer:	Hello. I have service with Time Warner. Usually, you would need to contact your ISP so they can obtain the MAC address of the modem. There after, it should be plug and play.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are you able to manually configure the wan interface's mac address
Answer:	Yes you can change them
Question:	Trying to use it for vonage voip phone and cisco jabber. is this the right one
Answer:	DO NOT accept any responses to your question, which are not VONAGE VOIP-specific. . . Note that Vonage does not necessarily have the same operating requirements like business VOIP systems do. I'm here looking at this BECAUSE to make Vonage work with either of two-year old high end different manufacturers' routers I have, which are touted to work with VOIP, to get Vonage to work with any of its current to previous three generation phone adapters, using either of my two routers: 1. Disable SIP 2 Disable QoS 3. Set the router firewalls to the LOWEST protection levels 4. Placing any of the Vonage phone adapters in DMZ DOES NOT let me increase the firewall settings to a higher level of protection. 5. PORT FORWARDING DOES NOT let use use a higher firewall protection level setting. So I am looking at this firewall, considering placing the now, two newest HT801 each with only phone port, phone adapters, on the LAN side of a router with firewall set to LOW- and see if I can then connect this or another FIREWALL hardware device, to another LAN port on the router, and the rest of my various, about 12-14 LAN devices, into this firewall- to provide added firewall protection to all of my LAN except for the two HT801 Vonage phone adapters (one for main phone number, and one for fax phone number). Note that in this 11-room two-story residence, on both floors, there is a home office. The Internet modem is centralized on floor 2, with the primary WIFI router. A cascaded WIFI router, set to Access Point, in centralized on the first floor. Both routers have hardwired and WIFI devices connected. I mention this to demonstrate that I do not want to leave all these devices protected with a low firewall setting, just to accommodate Vonage VOIP.
Question:	How much data can it handle
Answer:	For firewall WAN throughput the product is rated as an SPI Firewall 350Mbps but real world speedtest would be around 175-200Mbps. If you are looking for VPN throughput numbers, then it is rated for 90Mbps for the VPN encryption so for VPN traffic, real world throughput would be around 45-50Mbps
Question:	Is vpn client software included or is it a trial version
Answer:	The license is included. Note there are license limits on the number of concurrent VPN sessions, and that varies by model. Additional session licenses can be purchased. I make extensive use of L2TP VPNs on my USG110 and before that, on my USG40, and they work very well and are fairly simple to configure.

User questions & answers

Question:	does this require 48v or 24v poe injector
Answer:	Kind of, but not really, let me explain... While it does have a basic DHCP server built in, so if you were to use it with an ethernet switch (basically a device that 'splits' data cables, do a quick Google search, it'll make sense when you see what one looks like), the functionality is very limited. If you're only going to use one connected device (a wired desktop, for example) then it should be fine, anything more and you're definitely going to want to get a router to handle everything. It also does not have a firewall, so your computer/devices will be wide-open on the net, and it's not super high powered so it will struggle with any sort of high-traffic stuff. Basically, your MUCH better off getting even a really cheap router to use with this. Also, this does not have WiFi, if that's something you want as well, then you'll need a router. I hope that answers your question!
Question:	Is the WAN port limited to 1 gigabit
Answer:	Comes with power adapter and ethernet cable
Question:	Does anyone know what is "dual-optimized" antenna
Answer:	Yes, this device is supported by Comcast. Here is the link to their supported modem list: https://customer.comcast.com/help-and-support/internet/list-of-approved-cable-modems/
Question:	Where do i find the new firmware to upgrade my ap to use the free nebula cloud
Answer:	Some (I don't know if all) versions of the black variant have a USB jack in addition to the Ethernet jack. See:http://www.cox.com/residential/support/internet/article.cox?articleId=cc6c9cc0-fdba-11e1-7a24-000000000000#BackView

User questions & answers

Question:	Does a zywall110 works with IPV6 on a Comcast network
Answer:	Yes , it does.
Question:	questions. Getting 2 zywall 110 units for site to site vpn, how reliable is the connection? 2.How reliable are these routers in general
Answer:	I have 2 of the 110's and a 310. Have had them in operation for about 3+ years. These are absolutely reliable and work to protect our networks from multiple threats. Admittedly, they are a little difficult to program until the router methodology is learned.........but, I highly recommend.
Question:	How loud is this item? I am looking for something reasonably quiet for my home office equipment rack. Unfortunately I do not have a server closet
Answer:	Sorry for the delay in responding. It's kind of a subjective opinion but in my opinion this item isn't too loud. I installed one for a client in November in a one-room office; the device is in a cabinet and they haven't complained about it. The other one is in an equipment rack in a storage room so noise isn't much of a concern; however when I was getting the device ready to install I had it on my desk to configure and I didn't find it to be too annoying. This is a great device and is capable of much more than the applications I am using it for. I hope this information helps.
Question:	Is pptp protocol an option for vpn on this firewall
Answer:	VPN options are ipsec, L2TP, and SSL. We use the SSL VPN, with the secuextender client, from Windows10, Windows7, and Mac OS Sierra, all work well, and is easy to set up on the device. The windows client is free from Xyzel.com, the Mac client, sadly, is not. Although a browser-based Java download / install / connect is supported on the gateway, that option does not work with Win10 or Mac OS. Does work with IE11, Firefox, and Chrome on Win7 (or at least it did last year), but the secuextender client works much better, without the security risks of having JRE installed and active. Hope this helps...

ZyWALL110 VPN Firewall

ZyWALL110 VPN Firewall is designed with multi-core CPUs to deliver the fastest VPN and firewall performance on the market.

High-speed networking performance up to 1 Gbps firewall throughput and 300 Mbps VPN throughput keeps up with the high bandwidth demands of today's applications without sacrificing security.

Designed with completely new and advanced hardware platforms, ZyWALL110 VPN Firewall delivers uncompromising performance for high-speed site-to-site and client-to-site VPN.

At Zyxel, we strive to maximize your consumer satisfaction from our products. We endorse the reliability and quality of our products to the extent we offer a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Safer, More Reliable VPN Connections

Faster processors today have vastly boosted the capabilities of hackers to decrypt VPN tunnels. Legacy VPN cryptographic algorithms like Message Digest 5 (MD5) and Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA-1) are no longer sufficient to guarantee secure outbound communications. Supporting the more advanced Secure Hash Algorithm 2 (SHA-2), ZyWALL110 VPN Firewall provides the safest VPN connections in its class to ensure maximum security for business communications.

The complete range of Zyxel VPN Firewalls deliver reliable, non-stop VPN services with dual-WAN failover and fallback support. With two WAN connections—one primary and one for redundancy— Zyxel VPN Firewalls automatically switch to the backup connection should the primary link fail, and automatically switch back to the primary connection once they are back online.

Zero-Configuration Remote Access

Virtual private networks provide businesses with a secure and convenient way of sharing company resources with partners, customers, or employees on business trips. Yet typical VPN solutions are hard for non-technical users to configure, which greatly reduces their usability and convenience. ZyWALL110 VPN Firewall features Easy VPN to provide auto-provisioned client-to-site IPsec VPN setup. The Zyxel IPsec VPN client-software automatically retrieves the VPN configuration file from the remote Zyxel VPN Firewall and completes the IPsec VPN setup in 3 simple steps.

Unlimited Business Mobility

To support dynamic, mobile business operations in today's BYOD (bring your own device) business environment, ZyWALL110 VPN Firewall offers unlimited business mobility with Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) VPN for mobile devices. ZyWALL110 supports L2TP VPN on a wide variety of mobile Internet devices running iOS, Android and Windows mobile platforms.

Enhanced Customer Convenience

Locating firmware updates - not to mention identifying correct versions for your device and managing their installation - can be a complex and confusing ordeal. ZyWALL110 VPN Firewall solves this with its new Cloud Helper service. Cloud Helper provides a simple step to look for up-to-date firmware information. New firmware is immediately made available upon release from our official database to ensure its authenticity and reliability.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the country of manufacture for this device
Answer:	PoE input is 802.3af standard (48V), also can use the included 12V supply.
Question:	Should I be connecting all devices to this router for the best optimal performance or can I leave any on my old router attached to it
Answer:	These are access point devices, so the port is more correctly a LAN uplink port. The NWA110AX port is 1Gbps, and the NWA210AX port is 2.5Gbps.
Question:	Can this be used with a lte usb modem/hotspot? i know some routers can do this through a usb port
Answer:	Ceiling-mount installation is the most common type of wireless deployments, and it is not surprising that most APs on the market are designed with single static radiation pattern for ceiling-mount installations. In wall-mount scenarios, the ceiling-mount radiation pattern would create interference with devices on upper and lower floors, meanwhile it delivers short-range signal for wireless clients at the AP front. Designed with the innovative “Dual-optimized” antenna, the NWA1123-AC Pro adapts to both wall- and ceiling-mount installations. Each radio can be configured independently to wall or ceiling configuration.
Question:	Are the antennas on this Zyxel Armor Z2 detachable or are they permanently attached to the router
Answer:	You can download the latest firmware from our website or via our FTP site. We've put a page up on our support forums with links to the firwmare for each model, a link to a video to help explain the upgrade process, and where you can ask questions should you run into any difficulties. https://businessforum.zyxel.com/discussion/946/get-your-standalone-ap-onto-cloud-now
