1.1 Overview
The ADSL Router Series includes the P-660HNU-Fx, P-660HN-Fx, P-661HNU-Fx (x stands for 1 or
3). The routers in this series are ADSL2+ 4-Port Security Gateways with rich features and
performance that use 802.11N technology to maximize the spee d and range of your wi reless signal.
The ZyXEL Device is also a complete security solution with a robust firewall based on Stateful
Packet Inspection (SPI) and Denial of Service (DoS) protection.
Please refer to the following description of the product name format.
• “H” denotes an integrated 4-port hub (switch).
• “N” denotes wireless functionality, including 802.11n mode. There is an embedded mini-PCI
module for IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless LAN connectivity.
• “U” denotes a USB port used to share files via a USB memory stick or a USB hard drive. The
ZyXEL Device can function as a print server with a USB printer connected.
• Models ending in “1”, for example P-661HNU-F1, denote a device that works over the analog
telephone system, POTS (Plain Old T elephone 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.
See the chapter on product specifications for a full list of features.
1.2 Applications for the ZyXEL Device
Here are some example uses for which the ZyXEL Device is well suited.
1.2.1 Internet Access
Your Z yXEL Device provides shared Internet access by connecting the DSL port to the DSL/MODEM
jack on a splitter or your telephone wall jack.
Computers can connect to the ZyXEL Device’s ETHERNET ports (or wirelessly).

Figure 1 ZyXEL Device’s Internet Access Application
You can also configure the firewall 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 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
email high priority, and/or limit bandwidth devoted to the boss’s excessive file downloading.
1.2.2 Wireless Connection
By default, the wireless LAN (WLAN) is enabled on the ZyXEL Device. IEEE 802.11b/g/n compliant
clients can wirelessly connect to the ZyXEL Device to access network resources. You can set up a
wireless network with WPS (WiFi Protected Setup) or manually add a client to your wireless
network.
Figure 2 Wireless Connection Application
1.2.3 ZyXEL Device’s USB and Print Server Support
Use the built-in USB 2.0 port to share files via a USB memory stick or a USB hard drive (A).
Alternatively, you can add a USB printer (B) and make it available on your local area network.

1.3 The WPS/WLAN Button
Chapter 1 Introduction
You can use the WPS button ( ) on the top of the device to turn the wireless LAN off or on. You
can also use it to activate WPS in order to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security.
Turn the Wireless LAN On or Off
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 Press the WPS button for one second and release it. The WLAN/WPS LED should change from off
to on or vice versa.
Activate WPS
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 Place the devices you want to connect near one another.
3 Press the WPS button on top of the ZyXEL Device for more than five seconds and release it to turn
the WPS function on. Repeat this procedure when you want to turn the WPS function off.
4 Press the WPS button on another WPS -enabled device within range of the ZyXEL Device. The
WLAN/WPS LED should flash while the ZyXEL Device sets up a WPS connection with the wireless
device.
5 The WLAN/WPS light on the P-66xHNU-Fx Series shines steadily when connected.
Note: You must activate WPS in the ZyXEL Device and in another wireless device within
two minutes of each other. See Chapter 6 on page 123 for more information.

1.4 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.
• FTP for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore.
24
ADSL Series User’s Guide
1.5 Good Habits for Managing the ZyXEL Device
Do the following things regularly to make the ZyXEL Device more secure and to manage the Z yXEL
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.
Refer to the Quick Start Guide for information on hardware connections.
1.6 The RESET Button
Chapter 1 Introduction
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 y ou
will lose all configurations that you had previously and the passwords will be reset to the defaults.
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 T o set the device back to the factory default settings, press the RESET button for 5 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.
