Authentication

Type

The ZyXEL Device supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP

(Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol). CHAP is more secure than PAP;

however, PAP is readily available on more platforms.
Use the drop-down list box to select an authentication protocol for outgoing calls.

Options are:
CHAP/PAP - Your ZyXEL Device accepts either CHAP or PAP when requested by

the ISP.
CHAP - Your ZyXEL Device accepts CHAP only.
PAP - Your ZyXEL Device accepts PAP only.
None - Your ZyXEL Device does not send your user name and password for

authentication. The user name and password fields are grayed out. Select this

option if your ISP did not give you a user name and password.

User Name

Type the user name (of up to 31 ASCII printable characters) given to you by your

service provider.

Password

Type the password (of up to 31 ASCII printable characters) associated with the

user name above.

Retype to

Confirm

Type your password again to make sure that you have entered is correctly.

PIN Code

A PIN (Personal Identification Number) code is a key to a 3G card. Without the PIN

code, you cannot use the 3G card.
Enter the PIN code (four to eight digits, 0000 for example) provided by your ISP. If

you enter the PIN code incorrectly, the 3G card may be blocked by your ISP and

you cannot use the account to access the Internet.
If your ISP disabled PIN code authentication, enter an arbitrary number.
This field is available only when you insert a GSM 3G card.
Check the HOME screen to see if you have entered the correct PIN.

Phone Number

Enter the phone number (dial string) used to dial up a connection to your service

provider’s base station. Your ISP should provide the dial string.
By default, *99# is the dial string for GSM-based networks and #777 is the dial

string for CDMA-based networks.

Nailed-Up Select

Nailed-Up if you do not want the connection to time out.

Idle Timeout

This specifies the time (from 0 to 9999) in seconds that elapses before the ZyXEL

Device automatically disconnects from the ISP.

public IP address used on the Internet).
