Wifi keenetic does not work. How to restore a Zyxel Keenetic router if the firmware has failed. The router package includes

Zyxel is a world-famous brand that produces high-class network and peripheral equipment, proven by time and millions of users. The quality of workmanship and ease of use will allow any novice user to set up their Zyxel router in a short time and work on the network.

Turning on the router for the first time

Setting up the ZYXEL KEENETIC LITE 2 router for dummies begins with the user having to connect all the wires and the device itself in the correct sequence. To do this, the user must first connect the power supply to the mains. Next, you need to connect the Internet cable to the router. After which the user must connect the second cable included in the kit to the computer.

If everything is done correctly, a signal in the form of a round icon with a partially crossed out circle should light up on the case. It means that the device is powered from the mains.

The second signal in the form of a ball with a net should also light up.

This signal means that the user can begin setting up the router.

Hardware connection

There are many videos on the Internet “how to configure the ZYXEL KEENETIC LITE 2 router.” But you can do everything yourself and without outside help. Connecting the network kit occurs in several stages:

1. checking the operation of the network card on the computer;
2. connecting the router to an Internet cable and computer;
3. setting up a local network and Internet connection.

Checking the functionality of the network card when connecting a router is as follows:

• go to “start” and select the “control panel” tab;
• select the “Network and Sharing Center” shortcut or the “Network and Internet” tab and “Network and Sharing Center”;

• open the option “change adapter settings”;

• right-click on the “Local Area Connection” shortcut;
• if the connection is not connected, then connect;
• in the connection properties, select the “Protocol…” line and click on the “properties” option;

• in the window that appears, check the automatic configuration of IP and DNS addresses;
• repeat the last operation with “Protocol...4”.

If the user has done everything correctly, a monitor icon with a yellow triangle and an exclamation mark will appear on the panel in the lower right corner of the desktop. This means that the computer and router are connected to the network and you can proceed to the next step of setting up the router to create an Internet connection.

Changing the factory password

After the user has made a hardware connection, it is necessary to begin directly setting up the router. First, go to the Internet browser at 192.168.1.1. In the login column we type “admin”, and in the password column – 1234.

The system prompts you to change your password at the very beginning. The user should not abandon this procedure; he must immediately change it to a more complex one in order to avoid logging into the domain of third-party users in the future.

After logging into the domain, an updated window will appear in which you must enter new login and password data using numbers, letters of different sizes and various symbols. Next, select the “apply” option. The system will save the new domain data.

Firmware update

If during the setup process the router does not begin to function at full capacity and in the proper order, then there are two options for resolving the problem:

1. reset settings to factory settings;
2. firmware update.

First option involves completely resetting all configured parameters of the router and is used only if the order of complete setup from the moment the device is connected to the creation of a network connection is violated. To do this, you need to press the emergency reset button on the back of the router panel, after which the device will automatically reset all set parameters.

Second option involves updating the software version. This is due to the fact that outdated versions of drivers are not always compatible with the version of the operating system being used, which can lead to network equipment malfunctioning and a lack of Internet connection.

To solve this problem you need to:

To fully configure the Zixel router, there is a web interface on the home page - 192.168.1.1. Here you can do the following:

1. change the connection mode between the router and computer to increase the transfer speed;
2. set up an additional network or change its privacy settings;
3. set up a new connection or change the connection technology from “pppoe” to “l2tp”;
4. check the number of connected devices and limit access;
5. create a local network between computers.

Setting up and connecting to the Internet

If you were unable to connect to the Internet during the automatic setup process, you must manually check and set all connection parameters for normal operation of the network equipment. In this case, the question arises of how to reset the settings. The user must press the button on the back of the router to reset the configuration of all settings. Thus, the system will completely erase all configured settings. There is a video on the Internet “instructions for setting up ZYXEL KEENETIC LITE 2.” But such videos do not show all the nuances of the setup, which subsequently leads to a failure of the Internet connection. Most often, settings errors occur at the introduction stage on the router’s home page. If the user cannot configure pppoe independently in the future, then proceed as follows:

Thus, the user will create a new connection with the router settings for connecting to the Internet.

Setting up for Rostelecom and Dom ru

The leaders in the Internet services market are two companies - Domru and Rostelecom. They use approximately similar connection technologies (pppoe), so the process of setting up equipment and connecting to the network is similar. The operator TTK-Chita, for example, uses the same technology. Setting up ZYXEL KEENETIC LITE 2 for MTS, Domru and Rostelecom will occur as follows:

1. checking the electrical connection;
2. checking the connections of cables and wires to devices;
3. checking the operation of the computer's network card;
4. automatic network setup using the web interface prompts of the router home page (192.168.1.1).

This sequence of actions can be mastered by both experienced and novice users.

Setting up for Beeline

Beeline uses L2TP connection technology, which will require additional configuration as follows:

If all actions are carried out strictly in accordance with the above order, an automatic connection to the Internet should occur.

Setting up and enabling Wi-Fi

To set up a wireless data network using the Zixel router, you need to check the operation of the wi-fi module. To do this, go to the “Start” tab in the taskbar and type “device manager” in the search bar. After which the user must select the appropriate line, and a new window will open in which a list of functioning equipment will be indicated.

In a new window, select the line “network adapters” and expand the hierarchy of the line by opening the “+” icon. Below you will see lines with connected network devices, the name of one of which will contain “wirelessnetworkadapter”. The line icon should not contain additional marks in the form of an arrow in the background of the label itself. But if the mark is still there, then point the mouse cursor at the line of this device and press the right mouse button, select the “enable” option.

No further configuration is required, because The Wi-Fi connection was configured automatically when creating the basic Internet connection setup.

Setting up IPTV digital television parameters

Since the ZYXEL KEENETIC LITE 2 router has the “IPTV” function, special attention should be paid to setting it up in this part. For example, Rostelecom IPTV is configured as follows:

Thus, the user receives not only a good tool for surfing the Internet, but also for using TV services without additional equipment.

Setting up the ZYXEL KEENETIC LITE 2 router should not cause significant difficulties for the user, if he did not deviate from the proposed option for selecting Internet connection parameters. To do this, the manufacturer provides a procedure for automating the connection process and setting up a network device. Therefore, when carrying out these operations, you should act in accordance with the prompts in order to avoid problems and malfunctions of the device. But if it was not possible to do this using the automatic connection setup program, then you can carry out this procedure yourself using the tips described above.

I was sitting, not bothering anyone, on the Internet, everything was wonderful, nothing foreshadowed trouble, when suddenly the Internet went out. The first thought, or rather curse, was towards my provider, since he usually sins with this, and often fails. After 5 minutes things got much more interesting. I noticed that my laptop (and I have a laptop) does not see my modem ( ZyXEL NBG334W EE). Usually, when the provider fails, the signal with the modem does not disappear, but simply shows the corresponding icon about the lack of Internet. Well, I thought, and just rebooted the modem (unplugged it from the socket and plugged it back in), that’s it. To my surprise, the situation did not change and then I realized that this was a non-standard case. Another thing I noticed: the wi-fi indicator did not light up, although in operating mode 3 indicators were on (power, wi-fi, key). Well, that's it, I thought, screw the modem. In general, I suffered with it for quite a long time and I don’t really want to write about everything, so I’ll try to be more concise.

What happened to the router?

• - The wi-fi indicator did not light up
• - Can’t access the web interface (192.168.1.1)
• - Button reset(to reset all settings) doesn't work either

All that was left was to throw out the modem, but! I was confused by the fact that the other indicators were on, which means that all was not lost. I immediately realized that the problem was in the firmware or, as it is also called, microprogram. But I didn’t know how to update it without access to the web interface, and for this I needed to take the modem to a service center, and I was too lazy to do this, and I needed the Internet as soon as possible.

In short, I tried everything that was suggested on various forums, including official ones - nothing helped. And just when I was completely desperate, I managed to find a way out.

So let's try the following:

1. Press the button reset(small, behind) with something sharp and don’t let go.
2. We wait 30 seconds and turn off the power (from the outlet), do not release the button!
3. We wait 30 seconds. and plug it back in, don’t let go of the button!
4. We wait 30 seconds.

After this easy procedure, everything worked for me! The required indicator lit up, the modem became visible to the computer again, and the web also started working. interface. What's interesting is that this tip is not on the official website, although it is the only one that helped me solve my problem. At the office The site suggested restoring a damaged configuration file using the NBG Repair Tool utility, but this option did not help me either. Everything turned out to be much simpler.

Now I'm incredibly happy! I thought that the modem had received a complete scribe and, by the way, I already began to select new routers in the online store. How good is it that I didn’t have time to place an order today? And this pleasant feeling when you fix a device yourself that you were about to throw away is priceless!

The lights in the house were turned off. After it was given, I turned on the PC and discovered that the Internet and Wi-Fi settings had been lost. Reinstalled/reconfigured the Internet. It seems to work somehow, but poorly, something is wrong... Well, oh well. For some reason, I stopped seeing my access point, which I distributed through the router (I stopped seeing it on my phone and laptop). What kind of nonsense I thought and went into the settings of the ZyXEL KEENETIC router.

I look - everything is in place. Then what is it? Where is the access point? Okay... I delete the settings and redo them according to the instructions of my provider. Redid it. And so, the access point appeared on my devices, but there was no Internet on this access point. Although there is Internet on the main computer. There is no Internet - in the sense that the links do not open. And in the settings for the router it says: to my newly created connection, it says: “Error connecting to the server” and a red cross.

What is the problem? Maybe the problem is that they should give me access to the Internet again at my MAC address?

Help me please.

Answer

Hello. It’s bad that you didn’t write how everything is connected. The Internet is connected to Zyxel Keenetic, and then a cable to the PC and distribution via Wi-Fi? Where and what did you set up immediately after the electricity disappeared and appeared? What settings did you set?

I think the problem is this: after a power outage, the settings on the router were lost. Accordingly, the Internet stopped working. The Wi-Fi access point did not disappear anywhere, it was just that the network name became the default one and you did not notice it in the list of networks on your phone and laptop.

You have set up a connection to your provider on your computer and the Internet is working, but only on your PC. But you don’t need to set up a connection on your computer if you have a router. All settings provided by the provider must be specified in the Zyxel Keenetic settings.

What did you do next, and next to your connection in the router settings it says “Error connecting to server” with a red cross. Until it says “Connected” (or something like that), the Internet via Wi-Fi from the router will not work.

The first thing you need to do is disconnect/delete the connection on your computer. There is no need to run it. Next, in the settings of your Zyxel Keenetic, you need to create a connection to the provider in the “Internet” section (or edit an already created connection). Correctly specify the connection type and other parameters. Screenshot for example:

If the provider binds by MAC address (you need to clarify), then clone the MAC address from the computer, or register the MAC router with the provider.

The Zyxel company never tires of delighting us with more and more routers (routers) of the ZyXEL Keenetic series. And, despite the variety of models presented, the various technical features and characteristics, as well as the software part of all devices, are almost identical, and the settings are made in the same way. And in this faq we will deal with setting up and updating the software of the ZyXEL Keenetic series routers. If you are wondering whether this article is for you, then here is a complete list of router models for which the presented settings are suitable:

• ZyXEL Keenetic Lite;
• ZyXEL Keenetic Lite II;
• ZyXEL Keenetic Start;
• ZyXEL Keenetic;
• ZyXEL Keenetic II;
• ZyXEL Keenetic 4G;
• ZyXEL Keenetic 4G II;
• ZyXEL Keenetic Omni;
• ZyXEL Keenetic Giga;
• ZyXEL Keenetic Giga II;
• ZyXEL Keenetic Ultra.

All routers on the list run the NDMS V2 firmware, which is why the settings are made identically. And if suddenly your model is not on the list (this is possible if the router appeared after the article was written), then look at your model on the website zyxel.ru, in the “Support” section, check what firmware your router uses.

First connection of Zyxel Keenetic

To start working with the Zyxel Keenetic series router, just power up the router and connect to it for initial setup. Let's see how to do this.

After connecting the power, Zyxel Keenetic will immediately start turning on, this takes about 1 minute. If it suddenly doesn’t turn on, look - maybe your model has a power button (it’s located on the back, next to the power socket).

After turning on, we can connect to the router to perform the initial setup; this can be done in two ways:

• over a wireless Wi-Fi network. After turning on, the router immediately creates a Wi-Fi network, the network name and password for connection are written on a sticker on the bottom of the router;
• via Ethernet (using a wire). Everything is simple here - just connect the router and the network card of your computer with a twisted pair cable (included in the kit). It doesn’t matter which connector you connect the cable to the router - now all Zyxel Keenetic models come with NDMS V2 firmware (the connector operating mode is LAN/WAN is determined automatically). If you suspect that your router has an old firmware version when you first connect, connect the twisted pair cable to the yellow socket.

If you just need to create a network between several devices, then no configuration is required - just connect all devices to Zyxel Keenetic and they will “see” each other.

Basic setup of Zyxel Keenetic

Internet connection:

It all depends on the provider: unfortunately, there are no universal instructions. If no configuration is required, or you already have a configured router or modem, and you want to connect Zyxel Keenetic to it, then simply connect the devices with twisted pair cable, then turn on Zyxel Keenetic. The router itself will understand what is required of it. If configuration is required, check the settings with your provider and proceed to “First login to the WEB interface (Quick setup)”.

First login to the WEB interface (Quick setup):

If setting up is required to access the Internet, and we know its parameters, then let's see where and how to specify them.

First of all, connect the twisted pair cable (network cable) of your provider to the router, and the router to the computer (see “First connection of Zyxel Keenetic”).

Access Point tab:

Access point

Let's see what settings are available to us on the “Access Point” tab:

• “Enable access point” – checkbox to enable/disable Wi-Fi network.
• “Network name (SSID)” - you can set the network name (what your Wi-Fi network will be called).
• “Hide SSID” - you can hide the name of the network, then it will not be visible in the list of available networks (but devices on which this Wi-Fi network was saved, and the automatic connection option was enabled, will still connect to the wireless network automatically) .
• “Network protection” - here you can select the type of password encryption for connecting to the Wi-Fi network. If you do not have antediluvian computers with WinXP SP2, then choose “WPA2-PSK”. If you have legacy devices, you can select “WPA-PSK + WPA2-PSK”. If you want an open network, then select “No”.
• “Network key” is a password that must be entered to connect to a Wi-Fi network; for WPA2 it must be at least 8 characters (Latin letters and numbers). Keys 1-4 are used for WEP encryption, but it is used extremely rarely.
• “Standard” is a communication standard; for a successful connection, your network card must comply with the selected standard. I recommend choosing “802.11bgn”, all devices should work with it.
• “Channel” is the frequency at which the wireless network will be broadcast; select “Auto” - then the router itself will determine the least noisy frequency and will work on it.
• “Signal strength” - signal strength, for an average apartment 25% will be enough; If the signal is weak in some places, you can increase it.

After all the necessary settings have been specified, do not forget to click “Apply”. If you were connected to the router via Wi-Fi, then after changing most of the available settings you will disconnect from the network and you will need to select the network again and connect to it.

When changing the password, you should also change the network name (otherwise, to connect, you may need to manually delete the old saved network on the device from which you are connecting).

Guest Network tab:

Guest network

The essence of a guest network is that devices connected to it have access to the Internet through your router, but do not have access to your home network (the parameters of which are set on the “Access Point” tab). After enabling the guest network, you will see a new network in the list of available networks, which will be completely independent from your home network.

All settings are almost identical to the settings in the “Access Point” tab, so there is no point in describing them. But you should pay attention to the “IP Settings for Guest Access”. In general, everything here should be left as it is, but just in case, the “DHCP address pool size” is equal to the maximum possible number of devices connected to the guest network.

Access List tab:

Access list

This tab provides the ability to control access to the network created by the router using MAC addresses (MAC address is a unique identifier of a network device). The function is very convenient if you have a fixed number of devices connected to your router, and you do not plan to connect more to the router. Then you can add their MAC addresses to the white list, and only they will be able to connect to the router.

The following blocking modes are possible:

1. “Do not block” - entered MAC addresses are not taken into account;
2. “White list” - only those devices whose MAC addresses are on the list will be able to connect to the router’s network;
3. “Black list” - only those devices whose MAC addresses are on the list will not be able to connect to the router’s network.

To add a new MAC address to the list, click “Add address”, in the window that appears, indicate the MAC address and click “Save”.

The MAC address of the device can be viewed if it is connected to Zyxel Keenetic, in the “Home Network” section (icon with two miniature monitors at the bottom left) or at the link http://192.168.1.1/RU/hosts.html.

Connecting the Yota USB modem to Zyxel Keenetic

All Keenetic series routers (except Lite/Lite II, Start routers) can be connected to a USB modem (3G/4G) to access the Internet; this feature is widely used. Let's see how to connect the Yota Modem to the Zyxel Keenetic.

In fact, everything is very simple - turn off the router, connect the Yota Modem to the USB connector, turn on the router. Everything should work (the modem should be detected by the router).

You can check whether the modem is detected or not on the main page of the router’s WEB interface - information about the new connection should appear there.

Yota modem connected to the router

If the modem is not detected, try resetting it to factory settings (press and hold the “RESET” button on the device body for 15 seconds). If it doesn’t help, make sure that the router software version is up to date and update if necessary.

Saving and restoring Zyxel Keenetic settings

It is often necessary for one reason or another to save the current router configuration (for example, to transfer to a similar device or to restore the configuration after a firmware update). On Zyxel Keenetic routers, of course, the ability to save and restore settings is provided.

Saving Zyxel Keenetic settings:

1) Open the “System” section of the router’s WEB interface, the “Files” tab (the page is also available via a direct link - http://192.168.1.1/RU/files.html).

2) Click on the “startup-config” file.

Restoring Zyxel Keenetic settings:

1) Just like when saving settings, go to the WEB interface in the “System” section, “Files” tab (the page is also available via a direct link - http://192.168.1.1/RU/files.html).

2) Click on “startup-config” and in the dialog box that appears, click “Select file”, select the previously saved “startup-config” file from the computer. Then click “Replace”.

Select “Replace”

3) In theory, the router should reboot itself with the new settings, but in practice for some reason this does not always happen (perhaps it depends on the model/firmware version). Therefore, go to the “Reboot” tab and click “Reboot”.

The router will reboot and start working with the settings from the file.

Zyxel Keenetic firmware update

Let's look at how to update the Zyxel Keenetic firmware. There is one peculiarity here: a number of models were previously produced with firmware fundamentally different from NDMS V2, but in new models it was abandoned.

The old firmware looks something like this:

Old firmware

The new (current) firmware (NDMS V2) looks something like this:

Firmware NDMS V2

Updating Zyxel Keenetic with an old firmware version:

There are several nuances that should be taken into account - when updating, all settings will be lost - you cannot transfer them to the new version (you will have to configure them again). Rolling back is quite difficult.

Let's get started (a connection to the Internet must be configured on the router):

zyxel.ru

2) Go to the WEB interface of the router (http://192.168.1.1), go to the “System” section, select “Firmware” there.

Firmware installation

3) Click “Browse” and select the previously downloaded *.bin firmware file, click update.

4) Wait for the process to complete, this may take up to 3 minutes. The router will reboot during the update process.

Updating Zyxel Keenetic with new firmware version (NDMS V2):

1) Open the WEB interface of the router (http://192.168.1.1).

2) On the “System Monitor” page we find the “System Information” block and there we look for the “Updates” line. If a newer version of the firmware is available (than the current one), then opposite the “Updates” line there will be an “Available” link.

Update available

3) Click on “Available”. The “Components” tab section will open (in the “System” section), where we will be asked to install updates. Click “Ok” and wait until the update is downloaded and installed.

Click “Ok”

This method has one drawback - an Internet connection must be configured. But it may turn out that the firmware needs to be updated, but the connection to the Internet is not configured on the router. Therefore, there is the following option to perform the update under these conditions:

1) Download the current firmware version for your router model from the website zyxel.ru. Extract the *.bin file from the archive.

2) Open the “System” section of the router’s WEB interface, the “Files” tab (the page is also available via a direct link - http://192.168.1.1/RU/files.html).

3) Click on the “firmware” file, and in the dialog box that opens, first select “Select file” - select the *.bin firmware file, then click “Replace”.

4) Wait for the installation to complete.

We will definitely talk about more complex settings in future articles. If you are interested in a specific topic, or have questions, write in the comments.

Setting up Internet access

Setting up the router involves specifying the MAC address from your personal account. For normal operation it is important that these addresses match.

You can:

1. Specify in the router settings the MAC address of your computer specified in your personal account;

2. Specify the MAC address of the router in your personal account.

In the first case, you have the ability to quickly switch to working without a router, without any reconfiguration. In the second case, you will be forced to change the MAC address in your personal account every time you turn off the router. Therefore, we recommend using the first setting option.

Setting up a router for DC++

For the DC++ file sharing network to work correctly, you must do the following.

1. Assign specific IP addresses to your computers (not all routers have this feature). This is necessary for port forwarding to work correctly. The fact is that to work in DC++, your computer must be able to receive incoming data from the outside. This is exactly what Port Forwarding is used for, which redirects all incoming data on a specific port to the IP address of your computer that you specified when setting up Port Forwarding. If this address changes, DC++ will not work. To keep your computers' IP addresses unchanged, we configure Static DHCP. In other words, we tell the router to always assign a specific IP address to a computer with a particular MAC address.

2. Configure incoming data to be redirected to the appropriate IP addresses of your computers.

First, reserve specific IP addresses for specific computers on your home network. Open the Home Network menu and select Networking. In the window that opens, in the “Leased IP address” section, the MAC and IP addresses of all connected computers will be listed. Check the box next to the IP addresses that you want to assign to the corresponding MAC addresses. Click the "Commit" button.

IMPORTANT: Remember your reserved IP addresses. This will come in handy when setting up Port Forwarding.

If for some reason there is no data in the “Leased IP address” table, you can enter it manually in the form below.

The MAC address can be found in the following ways.

1. If the computer received an IP address from the router, then its IP and MAC addresses will appear in the corresponding columns of the “Local network settings” list (network connection properties).

2. Click “Start” -> “Run” -> “cmd /k ipconfig /all” -> “Ok”. Find the line with your IP. Two lines above, in the “Physical Address” field, your MAC will be indicated.

3. Click Start -> Run -> getmac. This command will display a complete list of MAC addresses on your computer without indicating their corresponding IP addresses.

Configuring Port Forwarding

Let's expand the menu home network and select the item Servers.

In the window that appears:

Place a check mark next to the item Open access to home network services.

In some firmware versions this item may be called "Enable port forwarding".

Click the "Apply" button.

In the “List of open home network services” section, you must perform the following steps.

1. In the “Service” field, select “Other” or an empty line (depending on the firmware version).

2. In the “Computer IP address” field, enter the IP that you reserved earlier.

3. In the Protocol field, select TCP and UDP.

4. In the “Port Range” field, enter 4000.

5. In the “To” field, also enter 4000.

6. In the Description field, enter DC++.

Click the "Add" button.

If everything is done correctly, then just below the button Add you will see an entry about the added rule.

If DC++ is intended to be used on several computers, a similar operation must be performed. When adding rules for other computers, you must specify the IP addresses of other computers and other ports.

For example:

computer 1: IP 192.168.1.33, port 4000, rule name DC++;

computer 2: IP 192.168.1.34, port 4001, rule name DC++_2;

computer 3: IP 192.168.1.35, port 4002, rule name DC++_3;

To avoid future problems, all IP addresses should be reserved. How to do this, read above.

Setting up a connection in the DC++ client

Go to your DC client settings: “File” -> “Settings” or just press Ctrl-O. Then select the connection settings section.

In the first field Network interface for all connections select address 0.0.0.0.

Make sure Firewall with Manual Port Forwarding is selected and the TCP and UDP ports are set to 4000.

Make sure that the “Update IP at startup” checkbox is checked, and in the “IP update interval in minutes” field, set it to 10.

Make sure that your IP address is indicated in the External / WAN IP field.

In the first line under the button Find IP addresses the address must be http://dc..php

In the firewall, for your DC client, ports 4000 must be open for the TCP and UDP protocols. The UDP protocol is needed for search to work.

In the settings of your favorite hub, the “IP” field should be empty.

You can easily find out your internal VPN IP address by clicking “Find IP addresses” in the same window. Once you click to the left of this button, your VPN IP address will appear.

ATTENTION!!! By clicking "Find IP Addresses" you will only get the correct IP if you have the correct addresses for the checking scripts. The first line should contain http://dc..php ,
and in the second http://dc..php

Wi-Fi setup

“Wi-Fi Settings” in front of the picture is changed to: “Open the “Wi-Fi Network” menu and select “Connection”.

In the window that opens:

Check the box next to “Enable wireless access point.”

In the “Network name (SSID)” field, enter the name of your Wi-Fi network – for example 2KOM-WiFi.

Check the box next to “Enable Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) mode.”

Leave the remaining fields unchanged.

Click the "Apply" button.

In the window that appears, click Ok

To ensure that only you have access to your Wi-Fi network, you need to enable security. Protection is carried out by encrypting the radio signal using a code word. There are several types of encryption: WEP, WPA and WPA2. Since WEP encryption is not strong enough, we recommend using WPA2 encryption.

The code word must be from 8 to 63 characters. To configure the protection of your WiFi network:

Open the "Wi-Fi Network" menu and go to the "Security" section.

In the Authentication column, select WPA2-PSK.

In the “Protection type” column, select “TKIP-AES”.

In the “Network Key Format” column, select ASCII.

In the “Network key (ASCII)” column, enter your password. It can contain from 8 to 63 characters.

Click the "Apply" button.

After applying the settings, your router is configured and ready for full operation.” correct it to “After applying the specified parameters, your router will be configured and ready for full operation.
