If you have more than one ZyXEL Device on your network (that uses the default System 
Name) or if you are not sure of your ZyXEL Device’s System Name, use one of the 
following methods to access the web configurator:
• Enter the ZyXEL Device’s LAN IP address in your browser’s address bar and press 
[ENTER]. The default IP address is 192.168.1.2. See 
information on locating and changing the ZyXEL Device’s IP.
• Alternatively, enter zyxelXX:XX:XX in your browser’s address bar, where 
XX:XX:XX represents the final six characters of your ZyXEL Device’s MAC (Media 
Access Control) address. The MAC address is usually printed on a label on the 
ZyXEL Device.
"
The ZyXEL Device has a MAC address for each of its interfaces; for example, 
one for the wired interface (LAN, or Local Area Network) and one for the 
wireless interface (WLAN, or Wireless Local Area Network). Use the LAN MAC 
address when accessing the ZyXEL Device over the wired network, and use the 
WLAN MAC address when accessing the ZyXEL Device over the wireless 
interface.
Type "1234" (default) as the password and click Login. In some versions, the default 
password appears automatically - if this is the case, click Login
You
 
should see a screen asking you to change your password (highly recommended) as 
shown next. Type a new password (and retype it to confirm) then click Apply
Alternatively, click Ignore.
"
If you do not change the password, the following screen appears every time 
you login.
