said by draconus :so are you saying the PK5000z is the same exact modem as the fr1000z?
From Qwest/CL pages:
Actiontec PK5000
"Just like the ZyXEL FR1000z, the PK5000 includes four Ethernet ports to work with several computers. Furthermore, its Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) will help you to install a secure wireless connection, even if you know little about wireless safety. Still, Qwest will provide the necessary support to help you set up your wireless connection. The PK500 has other advantages: It includes external and internal antennas for a strong wireless signal, extra memory for added Qwest features, and wired and wireless networking capabilities."
So yes and no. I think the PK5000 has a bit more features then the FR1000z. But both should support ADSL 2
Personally, I really like my PK5000. Streams netflix HD with multiple wifi PC's on it without any issues. Great range and extremely stable on my 12 mb connection.
