CHAPTER 1
Introducing the ZyXEL Device
This chapter introduces the main applications and features of the Z yXEL Device. It
also introduces the ways you can manage the ZyXEL Device.
1.1 Overview
The ZyXEL Device is an ADSL2+ pair bonding gateway that allows super-fast
Internet access over analog (POTS) telephone lines. It bonds two ADSL2+ lines
into a single logical connection to provide increased throughput at longer
distances. The ZyXEL Device also provides IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless networking
to extend the range of your existing wired network without additional wiring.
In the ZyXEL Device product name, “H” denotes an integr ated 4-port switch (hub).
Model names ending in “1”, for example P-663HN-51, denote a device that works
over the analog telephone system, POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service). The DSL
RJ-14 connects to your ADSL-enabled telephone lines.
Only use firmware for your ZyXEL Device’s specific model. Refer
to the label on the bottom of your ZyXEL Device.
The ZyXEL Device provides protection from attacks by Internet hackers. By
default, the firewall blocks all incoming traffic from the WAN. See Chapter 29 on
page 209 for a full list of features.
P-663HN-51 User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Introducing the ZyXEL Device
A typical Internet access application is shown below
Figure 1 Protected Internet Access Applications
WLAN
You can also use the ZyXEL Device to connect two geographically dispersed
networks over the ADSL line. A typical LAN-to-LAN application example is shown
as follows.
Figure 2 LAN-to-LAN Application Example
WLAN
The ZyXEL Device is compatible with the ADSL/ADSL2/ADSL2+ standards (see
Table 76 on page 209 for more details). Using ADSL2+, the ZyXEL Device can
attain a maximum downstream rate of about 44 Mbps.
1
Note: The standard your ISP supports determines the maximum upstream and
downstream speeds attainable. Actual speeds attained also depend on the
distance from your ISP, line quality, etc.
1.2 Ways to Manage the ZyXEL Device
22
Use any of the following methods to manage the ZyXEL Device.
1. This is the theoretical maximum rate under ideal conditions.
P-663HN-51 User’s Guide
Chapter 1 Introducing the ZyXEL Device
• Web Configurator. Use this for everyday management of the ZyXEL Device using
a (supported) web browser.
• SNMP. The device can be monitored by an SNMP manager. See the SNMP
chapter in this User’s Guide.
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 Hardware Connections
See the Quick Start Guide for the ZyXEL Device’s main hardware connections.
1.4.1 Connecting POTS Splitters
Use POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) splitters to separate the telephone and
ADSL signals. This allows simultaneous Internet access and telephone service on
the same line. A splitter also eliminates the destructive interference conditions
caused by telephone sets.
Install the POTS splitters at the point where the telephone lines e nter your
premises.
1 Connect the side labeled “Phone” to your telephone.
2 Connect the side labeled “Modem” or “DSL” to your ZyXEL Device.
3 Connect the side labeled “Line” to the telephone wall jack.

1.4.2 Telephone Microfilters
Telephone voice transmissions take place in the lower frequency range, 0 - 4KHz,
while ADSL transmissions take place in the higher bandwidth range, above 4KHz.
A microfilter acts as a low-pass filter, for your telephone, to ensure that ADSL
transmissions do not interfere with your telephone voice tr ansmissions. The use of
a telephone microfilter is optional.
1 Locate and disconnect each telephone.
2 Connect a cable from the wall jack to the “wall side” of the microfilter.
3 Connect the “phone side” of the microfilter to your telephone as shown in the
following figure.
4 After you are done, make sure that your telephone works. If your telephone does
not work, disconnect the microfilter and contact either your local telephone
company or the provider of the microfilter.

Introducing the Web
Configurator
This chapter describes how to access and navigate the web configurator.
2.1 Web Configurator Overview
The web configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy
ZyXEL Device setup and management via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer
6.0 and later versions. The recommended screen resolution is 1024 by 768 p ixels.
In order to use the web configurator you need to allow web browser pop-up
windows from your device. Web pop- up blocking is enabled by default in Windows
XP SP (Service Pack) 2. See Appendix C on page 201 if you need to make sure
pop-ups are allowed in Internet Explorer.
2.2 Accessing the Web Configurator
The following describes how to access the ZyXEL Device from the LAN using the
administrator or user account. See Section 25.5 on page 195 for information
about the support account.
1 Make sure your ZyXEL Device hardware is properly connected (see Secti on 1.4 on
page 23).
2 Assign your computer a static IP address (choose one from 192.168.1.2 to
192.168.1.254). See Appendix A on page 217 for how to change your computer’s
IP address.
3 Launch your web browser.
