1.1 Overview
The AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries are ADSL2+ routers. By integrating DSL and NAT, you are
provided with ease of installation and high-speed, shared Internet access. The AMG1302/
AMG1202-TSeries are also a complete security solution with a robust firewall and content filtering.
Only use firmware for your AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries’s specific model.
Refer to the label on the bottom of your AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries.
Note: Not all models have all of the features shown in this User’s Guide.
CHAPTER 1
Introduction
1.2 Ways to Manage the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries
Use any of the following methods to manage the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries.
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the AMG1302/AMG1202TSeries using a (supported) web browser.
• Command Line Interface. Line commands are mostly used for troubleshooting by service
engineers.
• FTP for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore.
• TR-069. This is an auto-configuration server used to remotely configure your device.
1.3 Good Habits for Managing the AMG1302/AMG1202TSeries
Do the following things regularly to make the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries more secure and to
manage the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries more effectively.
• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different
types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier
working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you
forget your password, you will have to reset the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries to its factory
default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally reconfigure the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries. You could simply restore your last configuration.

1.4 Applications for the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries
Here are some example uses for which the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries is well suited.
1.4.1 Internet Access
Your AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries provides shared Internet access by connecting the DSL port to
the DSL or MODEM jack on a splitter or your telephone jack. Computers can connect to the
AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries’s Ethernet ports (or wirelessly).
Figure 1 AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries’s Router Features
You can also configure firewall and filtering feature on the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries for secure
Internet access. When the firewall is on, all incoming traffic from the Internet to your network is
blocked unless it is initiated from your network. This means that probes from the outside to your
network are not allowed, but you can safely browse the Internet and download files.
Use the filtering feature to block access to specific web sites or Internet applications such as MSN or
Yahoo Messenger. You can also configure IP/MAC filtering rules for incoming or outgoing traffic.
Use QoS to efficiently manage traffic on your network by giving priority to certain types of traffic
and/or to particular computers. For example, you could make sure that the AMG1302/AMG1202TSeries gives voice over Internet calls high priority, and/or limit bandwidth devoted to the boss’s
excessive file downloading.
1.4.2 Wireless Access
The ZyXEL Device is a wireless Access Point (AP) for IEEE 802.11b/g/n compliant clients, such as
notebook computers or PDAs and iPads. It allows them to connect to the Internet without having to
rely on inconvenient Ethernet cables. You can set up a wireless network with WPS (WiFi Protected
Setup) or manually add a client to your wireless network.

1.6 Using the WPS Button
You can also use the WPS button to quickly set up a secure wireless connection between the
AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries and a WPS-compatible client by adding one device at a time.
To activate WPS:
1Make sure the POWER LED is on and not blinking.
2Press the WPS button for 1-5 seconds and release it. See below for WPS button location.
3Press the WPS button on another WPS-enabled device within range of the AMG1302/AMG1202-
TSeries. The WPS LED should flash while the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries sets up a WPS
connection with the other wireless device.
4Once the connection is successfully made, the WPS LED shines green.

1.7 The RESET Button
If you forget your password or cannot access the web configurator, you will need to use the RESET
button at the back of the device to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means that you
will lose all configurations that you had previously and the user name and password will be reset to
the default.
1.7.1 Using the Reset Button
1Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2To set the device back to the factory default settings, press the RESET button for ten seconds or
until the POWER LED begins to blink and then release it. When the POWER LED begins to blink,
the defaults have been restored and the device restarts.
