PROBLEM

CORRECTIVE ACTION

I cannot

access the

ZyXEL Device.

The username is “admin”. The default password is “1234”. The Password and

Username fields are case-sensitive. Make sure that you enter the correct password

and username using the proper casing.
If you have changed the password and have now forgotten it, you will need to upload

the default configuration file. This restores all of the factory defaults including the

password.

I cannot

access the

web

configurator.

Make sure that there is not a telnet session running.
Use the ZyXEL Device’s WAN IP address when configuring from the WAN. Refer to

the instructions on checking your WAN connection.
Use the ZyXEL Device’s LAN IP address when configuring from the LAN. Refer to for

instructions on checking your LAN connection.
Check that you have enabled web service access. If you have configured a secured

client IP address, your computer’s IP address must match it. Refer to

Chapter 23 on

page 293

for details.

Your computer’s and the ZyXEL Device’s IP addresses must be on the same subnet

for LAN access.
If you changed the ZyXEL Device’s LAN IP address, then enter the new one as the

URL.
See the following section to check that pop-up windows, JavaScripts and Java

permissions are allowed.

You may also need to clear your Internet browser’s cache.
In Internet Explorer, click Tools and then Internet Options to open the Internet

Options screen.
In the General tab, click Delete Files. In the pop-up window, select the Delete all

offline content check box and click OK. Click OK in the Internet Options screen to

close it.
If you disconnect your computer from one device and connect it to another device that

has the same IP address, your computer’s ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) table

may contain an entry that maps the management IP address to the previous device’s

MAC address).
In Windows, use arp -d at the command prompt to delete all entries in your computer’s

ARP table.

I cannot

remotely

manage the

ZyXEL Device

from the LAN

or WAN.

Refer to

Chapter 23 on page 293
