1.1 Overview

The ADSL Router series includes the P-660HN-TxA, P-660HN-Tx, P-660N-TxA, P-660HN-T1H, P­660HNU-Tx and P-660HU-Tx (x stands for 1 or 3). The routers in this series are ADSL2+ routers. By integrating DSL and NAT, you are provided with ease of installation and high-speed, shared Internet access. The ZyXEL Device 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.
• “U” denotes a USB port used to share files via a USB memory stick or a USB hard drive. The ZyXEL Device can also function as a print server with a USB printer connected.
• Models ending in “1”, for example P-660HN-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).
CHAPTER 1

Introduction

Only use firmware for your ZyXEL Device’s specific model. Refer to the label on the bottom of your ZyXEL Device.
Note: Not all models have all of the features shown in this User’s Guide.

1.2 Ways to Manage the ZyXEL Device

Use any of the following methods to manage the ZyXEL Device.
• 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.

Chapter 1 Introduction

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.
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
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.
DSL
24
Use the filtering feature to block access to specific web sites or Internet applications such as MSN or Yahoo Messenger. You can also configure IP/MAC filtering rules for incoming or outgoing traffic.
ADSL Router Series User’s Guide
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.
You can configure your wireless network in either the built-in Web Configurator, or using the WPS button.
Figure 2 Wireless Access Example
Chapter 1 Introduction
However, before you can use this ZyXEL Device to create a wireless network, you must set its country code first in the Web Configurator. This is very important.
To set the wireless country code:
1 Log into the ZyXEL Device’s built-in Web Configurator. See Chapter 8 on page 123.
2 Open the Network > Wireless LAN > AP screen.
3 Select your country from the Channel Selection list. See Section 8.2 on page 125 for details.
4 Click Apply to save your changes.
5 Finally, open the Internet and Wireless Configuration wizards to set up your network. See Chapter 5
on page 79.
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.

Chapter 1 Introduction
To activate WPS:
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on and not blinking.
2 Press the WPS/WLAN button for 1-5 seconds and release it. See below for WPS button location.
P-660HN-T1H
P-660HN-TxA, P-660HN-Tx, P-660N-TxA
3 Press the WPS button on another WPS-enabled device within range of the ZyXEL Device. The WPS/
WLAN LED should flash while the ZyXEL Device sets up a WPS connection with the other wireless
device.
4 Once the connection is successfully made, the WPS/WLAN LED shines green.

1.6 The RESET Button

If you forget your password or cannot access the web configurator, you will need to use the RESET button at the back of the device to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously and the user name and password will be reset to the default.
P-660HNU-Tx, P-660HU-Tx

ADSL Router Series User’s Guide
1.6.1 Using the Reset Button
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 To set the device back to the factory default settings, press the RESET button for ten seconds or
until the POWER LED begins to blink and then release it. When the POWER LED begins to blink, the defaults have been restored and the device restarts.

2.1 Overview

The web configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy device setup and management via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer 6.0 and later or Netscape Navigator 7.0 and later versions. The recommended screen resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels.
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.
• JavaScripts (enabled by default).
• Java permissions (enabled by default).
See Appendix C on page 317 if you need to make sure these functions are allowed in Internet Explorer.
CHAPTER 2

The Web Configurator

2.1.1 Accessing the Web Configurator
1 Make sure your ZyXEL Device hardware is properly connected (refer to the Quick Start Guide).
2 Launch your web browser.
3 Type "192.168.1.1" as the URL.
4 A password screen displays. To access the administrative web configurator and manage the ZyXEL
Device, type the user name (admin by default) and admin password (1234 by default) in the password screen and click Login. Click Cancel to revert to the default user password in the password field. If you have changed the password, enter your password and click Login.
