1.1 Overview
The P-660HW-Tx v3 is an ADSL2+ router. By integrating DSL and NAT, you are
provided with ease of installation and high-speed, shared Internet access. The P660HW-Tx v3 is also a complete security solution with a robust firewall and
content filtering.
Please refer to the following description of the product name format.
• “H” denotes an integrated 4-port hub (swi tc h).
• Models ending in “1” , for example P-660HW -T1, denote a device that works over
the analog telephone system, POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service). Models
ending in “3” denote a device that works over ISDN (Integrated Services Digital
Network) or T-ISDN (UR-2).
Only use firmware for your ZyXEL Device’s specific model. Refer
to the label on the bottom of your ZyXEL Device.
Note: All screens displayed in this user’s guide are from the P-660HW-T1 v3 model.
See the product specifications for a full list of features.
1.2 Ways to Manage the ZyXEL Device
Use any of the following methods to manage the ZyXEL Device.
• Web Configur ator. This is recommended for everyday management of the ZyXEL
Device using a (supported) web browser.
• Command Line Interface. Line commands are mostly used for troubleshooting
by service engineers.
P-660HW-Tx v3 Series User’s Guide
23
Chapter 1 Introducing the ZyXEL Device
• 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 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).
Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the device becomes
unstable or even crashes. If you forget y our password, you will hav e to reset the
ZyXEL Device to its factory default settings . If yo u backed up an earlier
configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the ZyXEL Device.
You could simply restore your last configuration.
1.4 Applications for the ZyXEL Device
Here are some example uses for which the ZyXEL Device is well suited.
24
P-660HW-Tx v3 Series User’s Guide
1.4.1 Internet Access
Your ZyXEL Device 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 ZyXEL Device’s LAN ports (or wirelessly).
Figure 1 ZyXEL Device’s Router Features
LAN
Chapter 1 Introducing the ZyXEL Device
DSL
You can also configure firewall and content filtering on the ZyXEL Device 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 content filtering to block access to specific web sites, with URL’s containing
keywords that you specify. You can define time periods and days during which
content filtering is enabled and include or exclude particular computers on your
network from content filtering. For example, you could bl ock access to certain web
sites for the kids.
Use QoS to efficiently manage traffic on your network by giving priority to certain
types of traffic and/or to particular c omput ers. For example, you could make sure
that the ZyXEL Device gives voice over Internet calls hi gh priority, and/or limit
bandwidth devoted to the boss’s excessive file downloading.

4.2 Setting Up a Secure Wireless Network
Thomas wants to set up a wireless network so that he can use his notebook to
access the Internet. In this wireless network, the ZyXEL Device serves as an
access point (AP), and the notebook is the wireless client. The wireless client can
access the Internet through the AP.
Thomas has to configure the wireless network settings on the ZyXEL Device. Then
he can set up a wireless network using WPS (Section 4.2.2 on page 45) or manual
configuration (Section 4.2.3 on page 50).

Thomas can now use the WPS feature to establish a wireless connection between
his notebook and the ZyXEL Device (see Section 4.2.2 on page 45). He can also
use the notebook’s wireless client to search for the ZyXEL Device (see Section
4.2.3 on page 50).
4.2.2 Using WPS
This section shows you how to set up a wireless network using WPS. It uses the
ZyXEL Device as the AP and ZyXEL NWD210N as the wireless client which
connects to the notebook.
Note: The wireless client must be a WPS-aware device (for example, a WPS USB
adapter or PCMCIA card).
There are two WPS methods to set up the wireless client settings:
• Push Button Configuration (PBC) - simply press a button. This is the easier
of the two methods.
• PIN Configuration - configure a Personal Identification Number (PIN) on the
ZyXEL Device. A wireless client must also use the same PIN in order to
download the wireless network settings from the ZyXEL Device.
Push Button Configuration (PBC)
1Make sure that your ZyXEL Device is turned on and your notebook is within the
cover range of the wireless signal.
2Make sure that you have installed the wireless client driver and utility in your
notebook.

4.5 Setting Up NAT Port Forwarding
Thomas recently received an Xbox 360 as his birthday gift. His friends in vited him
to play online games with them on Xbox LIVE. In order to communicate and play
with other gamers on Xbox LIVE, Thomas needs to configure the port settings on
his ZyXEL Device.
Xbox 360 requires the following ports to be available in order to operate Xbox
LIVE correctly:
TCP: 53, 80, 3074
UDP: 53, 88, 3074
Thomas may set up the port settings in two ways. He can either set the Xbox
360’s IP address as the default server (see Section 4.5.1 on page 58), or he can
configure the port settings for Xbox 360 (see Section 4.5.2 on page 59).
4.5.1 Default Server
It is much easier to set the Xbox 360’s IP address as the default server if it is not
already assigned to another server. There is no need to enter any port number.
Note: Setting a device as the default server exposes the device to potential attacks.
Any port service trying to access the ZyXEL Device’s WAN IP address will be
forwarded to the default server . It is recommended that you set up a firewall rule
to protect the device.
1If you are not certain about the Xbox 360’s IP address, you may check it in the
DHCP client table. Click Network > LAN > Client List to open the following
screen. Look for the IP address for Xbox 360.

Chapter 4 Tutorials
Thomas can then connect his Xbox 360 to the Internet and play online games with
his friends.
In this tutorial, all port 80 traffic is forwarded to Xbox 360, but port 80 is also the
default listening port for remote management via WWW. If Thomas also wants to
manage the ZyXEL Device from the Internet, he has to assign an unused port to
WWW remote access.
Click Advanced > Remote MGMT to open the WWW screen. Enter an unused
port in the Port field (this example uses 81). Click Apply.
4.6 Access the ZyXEL Device Using DDNS
If you connect your ZyXEL Devi ce to the Internet and it uses a dynamic WAN IP
address, it is inconvenient for you to manage the device from the Internet. The
ZyXEL Device’s WAN IP address changes dynamically. Dynamic DNS (DDNS)
allows you to access the ZyXEL Device using a domain name.
http://zyxelrouter.dyndns.org
w.x.y.z
To use this feature, you have to apply for DDNS service at www.dyndns.org.

4.7 Configuring Static Route for Routing to
Another Network
In order to extend your Intranet and control traffic flowing directions, you may
connect a router to the ZyXEL Device’s LAN. The router may be used to separate
two department networks. This tutorial shows how to configure a static routing
rule for two network routings.
In the following figure, router R is connected to the ZyXEL Device’s LAN. R
connects to two networks, N1 (192.168.1.x/24) and N2 (192.168.10.x/24). If
you want to send traffic from computer A (in N1 network) to computer B (in N2
network), the traffic is sent to the ZyXEL Device’s WAN default gateway by
default. In this case, B will never receive the traffic.
N1
A
R
N2
B
P-660HW-Tx v3 Series User’s Guide
65
Chapter 4 Tutorials
You need to specify a static routing rule on the ZyXEL Device to specify R as the
router in charge of forwarding traffic to N2. In this case, the ZyXEL Device routes
traffic from A to R and then R routes the traffic to B.

4.10 Multiple PVCs with QoS
This tutorial is only applicable for an ISP engineer.
An ISP may configure multiple PVCs for seperating different subscriber appl ication
traffic. This helps to record traffic statistics or calculate service charges. In
addition, the ISP can also apply different QoS according to the application
importance and whether the application is time-sensitive or not.
In the following figure, the ZyXEL Device is configured to transmit two types of
traffic, VoIP using SIP and general data using 0/33 and 0/35 PVCs respectively.
Because voice traffic is considered to transmit continuously but not for general
data, this tutorial uses Constant Bit Rate (CBR) for VoIP and Unspecified Bit Rate
(UBR) for general data ATM-QoS setting.

WAN Setup
6.1 Overview
This chapter describes how to configure WAN settings from the WAN screens. Use
these screens to configure your ZyXEL Device for Internet access.
A WAN (Wide Area Network) connection is an outside connection to another
network or the Internet. It connects your private networks (such as a LAN (Local
Area Network) and other networks, so that a computer in one location can
communicate with computers in other locations.
Figure 31 LAN and WAN
LAN
WAN
6.1.1 What You Can Do in the WAN Screens
•Use the Internet Access Setup screen (Section 6.2 on page 101) to configure
the WAN settings on the ZyXEL Device for Internet access.
•Use the More Connections screen (Section 6.3 on page 107) to set up
additional Internet access connections.
6.1.2 What You Need to Know About WAN
Encapsulation Method
Encapsulation is used to include data from an upper layer protocol into a lower
layer protocol. To set up a WAN connection to the Internet, you need to use the
same encapsulation method used by your ISP (Internet Service Provider). If your
ISP offers a dial-up Internet connection using PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet) or PPPoA,
P-660HW-Tx v3 Series User’s Guide
99
Chapter 6 WAN Setup
they should also provide a username and password (and service name) for user
authentication.
WAN IP Address
The WAN IP address is an IP address for the ZyXEL Device, which makes it
accessible from an outside network. It is used by the ZyXEL Device to
communicate with other devices in other networks. It can be static (fixed) or
dynamically assigned by the ISP each time the ZyXEL Device tries to access the
Internet.
If your ISP assigns you a static WAN IP address, they should also assign you the
subnet mask and DNS server IP address(es) (and a gateway IP add ress if you use
the Ethernet or ENET ENCAP encapsulation method).
Multicast
Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in one of either two ways - Unicast (1
sender - 1 recipient) or Broadcast (1 sender - everybody on the network).
Multicast delivers IP packets to a group of hosts on the network - not everybody
and not just one.
IGMP
IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to
establish membership in a Multicast group - it is not used to carry user data.
There are three versions of IGMP. IGMP version 2 and 3 are improvements over
version 1, but IGMP version 1 is still in wide use.
Finding Out More
See Section 6.4 on page 113 for technical background information on WAN.
6.1.3 Before You Begin
You need to know your Internet access settings such as encapsulation and W AN IP
address. Get this information from your ISP.
