The Zyxel Device is an LTE (Long Term Evolution) router that supports (but not limited to) the following:
•WAN Backup
• Gigabit Ethernet connection
• DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server
• NAT (Network Address Translation)
• DMZ (Demilitarized Zone)
• Port Forwarding/Triggering
• ALG (Application Layer Gateway)
• Embedded Bridge/Router mode
• Dynamic DNS (Domain Name System) for the first APN (Access Point Name)
• Static/Dynamic Route setting for RIP (Routing Information Protocol)
• Remote Management under Bridge mode
• Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)
• Firewall that uses Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) technology
• Protects against Denial of Service (DoS) attacks
• Filter of LAN MAC address, LAN IP address and URLs
• Local and remote device management
• Firmware upgrade via TR-069 and Web Configurator

Chapter 1 Introduction
The embedded Web-based Configurator enables straightforward management and maintenance. Just insert the SIM card (with an active data plan) and make the hardware connections. See the Quick Start Guide for how to do the hardware installation, wall/pole mounting, and Internet setup.
Note: These are the theoretical downlink/uplink rates. LTE speed is affected by strength of
signal, network congestion, LTE band(s) or frequency(-ies) to which your Zyxel Device is connected, and so forth.

1.2 Application for the Zyxel Device

Wireless WAN
The Zyxel Device can connect to the Internet through a 2G/3G/4G LTE SIM card to access a wireless WAN connection. Just insert a SIM card into the SIM card slot at the bottom of the Zyxel Device.
Note: You must insert the SIM card into the card slot before turning on the Zyxel Device.
You can install two external antennas to improve your wireless WAN signal strength. See Table 1 on page
16 for the feature differences.
Wireless LAN (WiFi)
Wireless clients can connect to the Zyxel Device to access network resources and the Internet. The Zyxel Device supports WiFi Protected Setup (WPS), which allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security.
Figure 1 Zyxel Device’s Wireless LAN
Internet Access
Your Zyxel Device provides shared Internet access by connecting to a cellular network. A computer can connect to the Zyxel Device’s PoE injector or a LAN port for configuration via the Web Configurator.

Figure 2 Zyxel Device’s Internet Access Application
Carrier Aggregation (LTE7480-M804 / LTE7490-M904/ LTE5388-M804 / LTE5398­M904 / LTE3316-M604)
Carrier Aggregation (CA) is a technology to deliver high downlink data rates by combining more than one carrier in the same or different bands together.
Figure 3 Zyxel Device’s CA Application
Ethernet WAN (LTE3301-PLUS / LTE5388-M804 / LTE5398-M904 / LTE3316-M604)
If you have another broadband modem or router available, you can use the Ethernet WAN port and then connect it to the broadband modem or router. This way, you can access the Internet via an Ethernet connection and still use the Firewall function on the Zyxel Device.
Note: For LTE3301-PLUS, convert LAN port number four as a WAN port first. See Section 6.4 on
page 99 for more information about the Network Setting > Broadband > Ethernet WAN
screen.
Note: For LTE5388-M804 / LTE5398-M904 / LTE3316-M604, convert LAN port number one as a
WAN port first. See Section 6.4 on page 99 for more information about the Network Setting > Broadband > Ethernet WAN screen.

The WAN connection priority is as follows:
1 Ethernet WAN
2 Cellular WAN (3G/4G)

1.3 Manage the Zyxel Device

Use the Web Configurator for management of the Zyxel Device using a (supported) web browser.

1.4 Good Habits for Managing the Zyxel Device

Do the following things regularly to make the Zyxel Device more secure and to manage the Zyxel Device 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). Refer to Section 33.2 on page
280. Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the Zyxel Device becomes unstable or
even crashes. If you forget your password to access the Web Configurator, you will have to reset the Zyxel Device to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the Zyxel Device. You could simply restore your last configuration. Write down any information your ISP provides you.
