• 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.
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).

You can al so configure firewall and filteri ng feature on the Z yXEL 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 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’ excessive file downloading.
1.4.2 Using the WPS/WLAN Button
By default, the wireless network is turned off on the ZyXEL Device. To turn it on, simply press the WPS/WLAN button on top of the device for 1 second. Once the WPS/WLAN LED turns green, the wireless network is active.
Chapter 1 Introduction
You can also us e 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.
2 Press the WPS/WLAN button for five to ten seconds and release it.
3 Press the WPS button on another WPS-enabled device within range of the ZyXEL
