CHAPTER 1
Introduction
1.1 Overview
The P-660HN-Tx (x stands for 1 or 3) is an ADSL2+ router with 2x2 wireless. By
integrating DSL and NAT, you are provided with ease of installation and highspeed, shared Internet access. With 802.11n 2x2, the P-660HN-Tx can transfer at
data rates up to 300Mbps. The P-660HN-Tx 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 (switch).
• “N” denotes 802.11n draft 2.0. The “N” models support 802.11n wireless
connection mode.
• Models ending in “1”, for example P-660HN-Tx, 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-660HN-Tx 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.
Chapter 1 Introduction
P-660HN-Tx User’s Guide
22
•
Web Configurator. 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.
• 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 your password, 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.
1.4 Applications for the ZyXEL Device
Here are some example uses for which the ZyXEL Device is well suited.

.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
You can also configure firewall and filtering feature 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 the filtering feaure to block access to specific web sites or Internet
applications such as MSN or Yahoo Messanger. 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 ZyXEL Device gives voice over Internet calls high priority, and/or limit
bandwidth devoted to the boss’s excessive file downloading.
1.5 Wireless Access
The ZyXEL Device is a wireless Access Point (AP) for wireless 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.

5 Finally, open the Internet and Wireless Configuration wizards to set up your
network. See
Chapter 5 on page 57.
1.5.1 Using the WPS/WLAN Button
By default, the wireless network on the ZyXEL Device is turned on. To turn it off,
simply press the WPS/WLAN button on top of the device for over 5 seconds.
When the WPS/WLAN LED is green, the wireless network is active.
You can also use the WPS/WLAN button to quickly set up a secure wireless
connection between the ZyXEL Device and a WPS-compatible client by adding one
device at a time.
To activate WPS:
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on and not blinking.
