clients to connect to the NBG4615 wirelessly. Enable wireless security

 

(WPA(2)-PSK) and/or MAC filtering to protect your wireless network.

 

Note: The NBG4615 may be prone to RF (Radio Frequency)

 

interference from other 2.4 GHz devices such as microwave

 

ovens, wireless phones, Bluetooth enabled devices, and other

 

wireless LANs.

 

 

Firmware Upgrade

Download new firmware (when available) from the ZyXEL web site and

 

use the Web Configurator to put it on the NBG4615.

 

Note: Only upload firmware for your specific model!

 

 

Configuration Backup &

Make a copy of the NBG4615’s configuration and put it back on the

Restoration

NBG4615 later if you decide you want to revert back to an earlier

 

configuration.

 

 

Network Address

Each computer on your network must have its own unique IP address.

Translation (NAT)

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 NBG4615 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 NBG4615 blocks or allows access to web sites that you specify and

 

blocks access to web sites with URLs that contain keywords that you

 

specify.

 

 

Bandwidth Management

You can efficiently manage traffic on your network by reserving

 

bandwidth and giving priority to certain types of traffic and/or to

 

particular computers.

 

 

Remote Management

This allows you to decide whether a service (HTTP traffic for example)

 

from a computer on a network (LAN or WAN for example) can access

 

the NBG4615.

 

 

Wireless LAN Scheduler

You can schedule the times the Wireless LAN is enabled/disabled.

 

 

Time and Date

Get the current time and date from an external server when you turn

 

on your NBG4615. You can also set the time manually. These dates and

 

times are then used in logs.

 

 

Port Forwarding

If you have a server (mail or web server for example) on your network,

 

then use this feature to let people access it from the Internet.
