Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your ZyXEL Device

Figure 1   Secure Internet Access via Cable, DSL or Wireless Modem

Add a wireless LAN to your existing network without expensive network cables. Wireless 
stations can move freely anywhere in the coverage area and use resources on the wired 
network.

Figure 2   WLAN Application Example

You can have the ZyXEL Device works as a pure access point (AP). When the ZyXEL Device 
is in Access Point mode, all LAN and WAN ports act as a hub. 

The application diagram for Access Point mode is similar to the WLAN application in Router 
mode (see 

), except that the ZyXEL Device in Access Point mode does not 

have advanced features, such as NAT, DHCP server, firewall, bandwidth management, etc.

If you set the ZyXEL Device to WiFi WAN Router mode, the ZyXEL Device uses a wireless 
WAN connection via an AP or wireless router, instead of a wired connection via a DSL/cable 
modem.

Note: You can set the ZyXEL Device to WiFi WAN router mode only when you use 

Ethernet encapsulation.
