Benefits
Easy guest access authentication for hotels
Hotels need to provide Internet services to hundreds of guests on a daily basis, and managing 
Internet access for so many people can be very complicated without the right equipment. With 
hospitality features like a customizable web authentication portal and RADIUS authentication, the 
ZyXEL UAG715 can help hotels provide controlled network access to hundreds of guests with ease. 
Hotel guests are redirected to the web-based authentication portal upon the first attempt to 
access the network. Simply by entering the account information provided by the hotel, guests can 
get secure wired or wireless access to the Internet in a matter of seconds. The web-based 
authentication portal is also highly customizable. Hotels can customize the portal with company 
logos, backgrounds, news, advertisements or other texts to meet their needs.
Reliable, always-on Internet services with dual-WAN load balancing and 
failover
As people today travel with more mobile Internet devices like smartphones, tablets, laptop 
computers and handheld game consoles, the quality of Internet services at hotels has become an 
integral part of customer satisfaction. This means that, to satisfy customers, hotels need a more 
robust solution to not only handle the increased amount of network traffic, but also provide 
always-on network accessibility. With Gigabit dual-WAN load balancing and failover, the ZyXEL 
UAG715 can help hotels provide high quality network access for guests and customers. 
Connecting the UAG715 to two different ISP subscriptions, users can configure the device to work 
in either active-active load sharing mode, or active-passive failover mode to fulfill deployment 
needs. In active-active mode, the UAG715 distributes network traffic between the two WAN 
connections, preventing overload on either connection and ensuring Internet service quality for 
everyone in the network. In active-passive mode, the UAG715 uses one WAN connection for 
Internet services and the other as a backup to provide always-on connectivity in cases of network 
failures.
