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 feature 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.
You can configure your wireless network in either the built-in Web Configurator, or using the WPS button.
Figure 2 Wireless Access Example
1.5.1 Using the WLAN/WPS Button
By default, the wireless network is turned on. If it is turned off, simply press the WLAN/WPS button in front
of the Zyxel Device for 1 second. Once the WLAN/WPS LED turns 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.
2 Press the WLAN/WPS button for five to ten seconds and release it.
