Preparations
Dialing Application
Under the access mode of PPPoE, if the built-in dialing function
of WA1003A is disabled, you can install additional dialing
application on your computer to connect to the ISP’s network.
Splitter
Splitter can reduce disturbance signals in the telephone line.
WA1003A needs a separate splitter. An external splitter has
three ports.
zLINE: Connecting to the phone jack.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary
5
zPHONE: Connecting to the telephone sets.
zMODEM: Connecting to the ADSL port of WA1003A.
Ethernet NIC
Computer is connected to WA1003A through the Ethernet port
on WA1003A. Ensure your computer is configured with NIC
adapter as well as Ethernet port. Besides, be sure to enable the
TCP/IP protocol for your operating system (OS).
User Name and Password
For PPP connections you must obtain the user name and
password from your ISP.
Connecting WA1003A
Note: If you want to connect one or more telephones, a
splitter is needed to work between telephones and the
line from the phone Jack.
Note: Place WA1003A in a location with enough space that
you can easily connect the ports on the rear panel.
The device should be near the computer for you to
easily view the LED indicators on the front panel. To
avoid WA1003A to be overheated by the bad
condition of emission, leave enough space around
WA1003A while the device is working.
You are now ready to connect WA1003A. Follow these steps:

1. Connect the ADSL line - Plug one end of the twisted-pair
phone cable into the splitter and insert the other end into
the wall socket. Use another phone cable to connect the
splitter with the ADSL port on the rear panel of WA1003A.

2. Connect the power adapter - Use the power adapter
supplied and plug it into a suitable power source. You
should see the Power LED indicator light up and remain lit.
3. Connect WA1003A to your computer - Use the Ethernet
cable provided to connect WA1003A with your computer or

also connect WA1003A to your computer through USB port
or 802.11b/g wireless connection.
When the LAN Link/Act LED of WA1003A is on, it indicates
the connection between WA1003A and your PC is okay.
Note: Use cross-over cable to connect WA1003A with the
uplink port of a switch or hub.
Note: The attached Ethernet cable in the packing box is a
straight-through cable. Make sure that the cable
connecting the LAN to WA1003A does not exceed
100 meters.
Quick Troubleshooting
Trouble Solution
The indicator
of power
supply is not
on
Make sure the connection of power supply is
correct.

Trouble Solution
The relative
indicator of
LAN is not on
after the
Ethernet cable
has been
connected
Check the connection of cable and network
adapter;
Make sure that the correct cable is used;
Make sure the cable works fine by pinging
the host IP address;
Ensure your Network Adapter works
normally by examining whether the item of
“Networking Adapters” is labeled with “?” or
“!”. If yes, delete it and then click Refresh to
reinstall. Otherwise, you may try the NIC in
another slot. If it still does not work, replace
the NIC.
The indicator
of ADSL is not
on
Ensure the line and splitter is well
connected;
Ensure the telephone line outside the house
is valid, try to test with a telephone;
Ensure there is no junction box before
connecting, which has such components like
capacitors or diodes that could hinder back
high frequency signals;
Ensure the telephone line is connected in the
right way.

name and password;
Ensure “Use Proxy Server” is set properly for
IE, if the problem still remains even after you
have log in successfully;
Try more Web sites, in case any Web server
is in failure.
Can’t access
some Web
servers
Possibly the MTU (Maximum Transport Unit)
of the OS is too large.

Safety Concerns
1. Place your WA1003A on a stable stand or table.
2. Use the power adapter provided along with WA1003A.
3. Do not connect telephone directly to the ADSL line. Use a
splitter to connect the phone.
4. Do not put heavy objects on top of WA1003A.
5. Do not spill liquid of any kind onto WA1003A. Keep the unit
clean and in a dry environment.
6. Plug off the power supply in a stormy weather.
7. Do not expose WA1003A to direct sunlight.
8. Do not put WA1003A on top of the cabinet of your PC.

9. Use a soft and dry cloth for cleaning.
10. When not in use, power off the WA1003A;
11. Do not use junction boxes before connecting the WA1003A,
which have such components like capacitors or diodes that
could hinder back high frequency signals.
Note: When WA1003A has been running for a long time,
the surface of the shell will reach a certain
temperature. Do not worry, this is a natural
phenomenon and the WA1003A can still work
normally.
