Device Management Use the web configurator to easily configure the rich range of features on
the NBG420N.
Wireless Functionality Allows IEEE 802.11b and/or IEEE 802.11g and/or IEEE 802.11n wireless
clients to connect to the NBG420N wirelessly. Enable wireless security
(WEP, WPA(2), WPA(2)-PSK) and/or MAC filtering to protect your

Firmware Upgrade Download new firmware (when available) from the ZyXEL web site and
use the web configurator, an FTP or a TFTP tool to put it on the
NBG420N.
Note: Only upload firmware for your specific model!
Configuration Backup &
Restoration
Make a copy of the NBG420N’s configuration and put it back on the
NBG420N later if you decide you want to revert back to an earl i er
configuration.
Network Address
Translation (NAT)
Each computer on your network must have its own unique IP address.
Use NAT to convert a single public IP address to multiple private IP
addresses for the computers on your network.
Firewall You can configure firewall on the NBG420N for secure Internet access.
When the firewall is on, by default, 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 for example.
Content Filter The NBG420N blocks or allows access to web sites that you specify and
blocks access to web sites with URLs that contain keywords that you
specify. You can define time periods and days during which content
filtering is enabled. You can also include or exclude particular computers
on your network from content filtering.
You can also subscribe to category-based content filtering that allows
your NBG420N to check web sites against an external database.
