Before setting up your router Zyxel Keenetic you need to decide which way you prefer to configure the router. The fact is that, unlike many other similar devices, the Zyxel Keenetic router can be configured in two ways: automatically using the NetFriend program or manually via the web interface.

Most users prefer automatic tuning, which is not surprising, because few people want to mess around with the settings when it is possible to entrust this to a special program. Despite this, we will consider both ways to configure the Zyxel Keenetic router, because using the program does not allow you to configure the router completely, for example, you won’t be able to make settings wireless network. In addition, manual tincture also does not imply any difficulties and any user can handle it.

It should also be said that this manual Suitable for almost any model of Zyxel routers. Even if there are some differences, you can easily figure it out starting from this instruction. We will not consider the process of connecting a router of this model, since here the scheme will be standard. If you have any difficulties connecting, we recommend that you read. So, first, let's look at how to set up a Zyxel Keenetic router using special program, after which we go to manual setting.

How to set up a Zyxel router using NetFriend

We note right away that you won’t have to download any program and all actions will be carried out from the web interface, but in automatic mode. First of all, you need to go to the web interface of the Wi-Fi router itself. For this in address bar browser, enter my.keenetic.net or 192.168.1.1. You should see the NetFriend quick setup page. You may also be on a page with a login and password request (the default login and password are admin). To get to the NetFriend quick setup page, you need to reset everything to factory settings. This is done using the reset button.

If even after that you still see a form asking you to enter your login and password, then enter the necessary data and get to the quick setup page or to " System Monitor» Zyxel. If you are in the "System Monitor", then you need to find the icon with the image the globe and click on it, then select "NetFriend". Now we can proceed directly to the settings themselves.

In the main menu, select the "Quick Setup" item, after which we indicate our country, city and Internet service provider.


The next step will be to enter a login and password, but not the ones that we indicated to enter the web interface, but the data provided by the provider to enter the Internet. After entering necessary information press the "Next" button and the NetFriend program will start automatic check and try to connect to the internet. If everything is normal, then the following window will appear on the monitor or offer to update the firmware.


In principle, the settings are almost over. The only thing left for you to do is to follow a few more steps that the program asks for. They are optional and it is up to you to decide whether to skip these settings or not. In the last window, a message will appear that the connection has been established.


That's all, you can go online. The only other thing we would recommend doing is setting wireless wifi network, that is, come up with a name for your network and set a password, we will consider these parameters in more detail later. Now let's find out how to configure the Zyxel Keenetic router manually.

Manual configuration of the Zyxel Keenetic router

Manual settings are made in the main menu of the router. As mentioned earlier, it is entered by entering the address 192.168.1.1 into any browser. Enter your username and password in the form that appears. If the word admin is not suitable for both values, see the router documentation. After entering the data, the "System Monitor" should open. Internet Center Keenetic". If you are on the NetFriend quick setup page, then you can go to the Zyxel Keenetic Web Configurator by clicking on the planet icon located at the bottom of the page.

Once in the main menu of the web interface, open the "System" tab, and in it you need to select the "Operation mode" item. Opposite the item "Connect via a dedicated Ethernet line" put a tick. Don't forget to save your settings. Now you need to follow the following path: "Internet" - "Authorization" and check the box "Authorization in the provider's network using the 802.1x protocol". A new window should open in front of you. We enter the following data into it: "Verification method" - EAP-MD5; "Username" and " A codeword"- open the contract with the provider and enter the appropriate value. Don't forget to save your settings.

If everything was done correctly, the Internet should already start working, as evidenced by the corresponding LED indication on the device itself. As you can see, there is nothing complicated in manually setting up a Zyxel router. Now let's walk through the Wi-Fi setup process.

How to set up Wi-Fi in a Zyxel Keenetic router

The wireless network is configured in the web interface wifi router. You already know how to enter the main page for setting up a Zyxel router. On the main page, find the section " WiFi network” and click on the “Connection” item. Open the "Basic Wireless Network Settings" tab and enter the following information:

  1. "Enable dot wireless access” and “Enable WiFi mode Multimedia (WMM)" - check the boxes;
  2. "Network name" - enter the desired name of your wireless network;
  3. "Hide SSID" - this item must be disabled if enabled. If you leave a checkmark, then other users will not see your network. Note that the fact that they see it does not mean that any user can connect to it, you will exclude this possibility by setting a password;
  4. "Communication standard" - 802.11g / n; "Channel" - "Auto-select". For the settings to take effect, click the Apply button.

Now you need to make security settings for your wireless network, so that everyone could not connect to it. To do this, go to the “Security” item in the “ WiFi network". Select the "Settings" tab wifi security' and provide the following information:

  1. "Authentication" - WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK;
  2. "Type of protection" - TKIP / AES;
  3. "Network Key Format" - ASCII;
  4. "Network key" - here we specify the desired password for connecting to a Wi-Fi network.


We save the settings and use the Internet. That's all, now you just have to choose how to configure the Zyxel Keenetic router - manually or using the program.

There are two ways to enter the settings of Keenetic routers (Lite, Giga, Ultra, Extra, Viva, Air) from Zyxel. The first - common to all devices of this class - is through the IP address 192.168.1.1 . It must be entered into the address bar of the browser and press the "Enter" key.

After that, an authorization form should appear, where you need to enter your login admin and password 1234 , which comes on the device by default from the factory. But besides the digital address 192.168.1.1, Keenetic has another one - a symbolic address or Domain name - my.keenetic.net.

By the way, it is the domain name "my.kinetic.net" that is indicated on the case of Ziksel modems and routers in the last couple of years:

A user who first took up setting up a router may be rather puzzled - what address should be used to enter - 192.168.1.1 or my.keenetic.net???
Actually, it doesn't matter! Both addresses are relevant - they are two sides of the same coin. They just work at different levels.

The fact is that IP is a digital address. network device working on network layer OSI model, and the domain name is at the application layer. When trying to log in to the Zyxel router settings Keenetic III, Air, 4G, Lite, Giga, Ultra, Extra, Viva or other model using a hostname, goes automatic conversion its IP address using DNS technology.

Why does not go to my.keenetic.net - the site does not open?!

What to do if the router is available at the IP address, and when you try to login to my.keenetic.net - Personal Area Zyxel router does not open and the browser does not enter the web configurator.
This is usually caused by incorrect DNS setting on the computer or laptop from which you are trying to access the device.

In order for the Ziksel router to be accessible at the symbolic address my.keenetic.net, it is necessary that the "Obtain DNS server address automatically" checkbox be checked in the IP version 4 (TCP / IPv4) protocol settings.
Or, alternatively, you can manually enter the address as the main preferred DNS server Keenetic router- 192.168.1.1. Like this:

If you do not have anything written in these fields, then access through the domain will not work!!! This is not how it should be:

You will also not be able to access the Ziksel Kinetic router through my.keenetic.net if you use public servers Google (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4), Yandex (77.88.8.8) or your ISP's servers:

The fact is that this domain name is registered on the Keentic router itself and redirects to . External servers do not know about the existence of a local network host with this name and try to search for a host on the Internet. And since there is no such thing there, then as an answer we get "Page not found" or "Node not available".

Zyxel Keneetic routers are at the forefront of the list of the most popular routers in the CIS and the world. All thanks to its simplicity and good performance. We will not analyze the characteristics, because this is not the main task for today.

As mentioned in other articles, after buying a router, the buyer wonders how to properly debug a new device. It often happens that the instructions seem to be clear, but I just can’t do it right. We will dot all the "and" so that it is as clear as possible.

The main question that primarily interests our users when buying Zyxel is how to enter the settings. After there will be a micro-course on installing a wireless network.

Where can I find router configurations?

First you need to connect all the necessary cables to the device. You can not mention the power cable, this is understandable. The main thing is not to forget to connect your desktop computer or laptop to the distributor using network cable lan.

If you have connected, then make sure that the Zyxel keenetic 4G router is running and that the PC has correctly recognized the network. Now you can look at reverse side Zyxel keenetic router, there should be an address. A special local site in the router is intended for debugging, it is signed on the bottom side. In our case, this can be two options:

1. 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1

Log in to these addresses. By clicking on them in the browser, you enter the settings of the Zyxel router. In the event that you see this site for the first time, and no one has used the device before you, two buttons should appear. Router setup buttons:

Web configurator

quick setup.

When you first enter this site, "set router administrator password" appears. Here you need to enter New Password to enter settings. We strongly recommend not to avoid this item on Zyxel Keenetic.

Now, to enter the router settings, you need to enter the data that indicated the step earlier. The username is "admin" and the password is yours. Click on the "send" button.

Now you have entered the router settings. Primary interface colors: faded blue, dark blue and other shades. Zyxel has a lot important information for the owner of the device, for example:

Is the internet connected now?

· what are yours DNS servers;

the model of the router;

how long the modem has been on;

Which slots are busy and so on.

Since some Internet providers allow you not to go through the procedure for setting up an Internet connection to the router, let's move on to setting up the wireless mode.

Wireless mode

In the menu on the left, which of blue color, there is an item "Wi-Fi network". After clicking, a sublist appears. Our finger falls on the "safety" key. We expose everything on this page as in the screenshot:

1. Authentication - WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK;

2. Protection type must be TKIP/AES;

3. Key (or password) format - ASCII;

4. Customize network key, he is the password, at your discretion. This is the password required to further connect devices to the Internet.

5. Click "Apply".

This completes the configuration. We now know exactly how to enter the Zyxel router settings. And also we put wireless mode in order to access the network from anywhere in the house.

We'll figure it out how to connect, and how to set up the Internet and set up Wi Fi. The capabilities of this router will be discussed in other articles. Let's break the router settings.

Connecting to a ZyXEL Keenetic II computer via wire


As you can see from the picture, connecting the router is very simple. And with this, anyone can do it, since you need to perform only three simple steps:

  1. We take the power supply, connect it to the connector on the “POWER” router, and connect it to the outlet. Then we press the button. The power indicator on the front panel of the router should light up;
  2. The Internet provider's wire (which comes from the corridor) is connected to a special INTERNET connector. The field of which on the front panel of the router should flash the Internet indicator;

Most fast way to fix any problem is to reset the settings and reconfigure the router with a new one. To do this, you need any thin object (toothpick, pin, match, etc.), with this object we press the button on the rear panel above the "RESET" inscription. Hold down the button for 20-30 seconds, then wait a couple of minutes for the router to reboot.

Login to the ZyXEL Keenetic II configuration web interface

After connecting the router and checking the network card, you can enter the router management interface. To do this, open any browser and write the address of your router in the address bar 192.168.1.1 or my.keenetic.net If you are connecting to the router for the first time, then a welcome page will open in front of you, where you will be asked if you want to go through quick setup the Internet. I will not explain how to go through the quick setup, everything is very clearly described there. Let's go directly to the web interface by clicking on the appropriate button.

After pressing the button, the router will ask you to set the administrator password. You can set any password using letters numbers. The most important thing is that you always remember it, but it is better to write it down somewhere. Fill out the form and click the "Apply" button.

After that, the page will reload and the authorization window will open. Login « Name user - admin «, « Password - the one you set". Click on the "OK" button.

Then you will see main page interface of the ZyXEL Keenetic II router.


Setting up the Internet on a ZyXEL Keenetic II router

To configure the Internet, go to the appropriate section of the router - the icon in the form of a planet in the lower menu.

Let's take a look at setting up the three most popular types Internet connection (PPPoE, PPtP, L2tp). First you need to ask the provider what type of connection it uses. Then go to the "PPPoE / VPN" section, and click on the " Add connection«.

Here you need to fill in the fields presented in the list below, the rest of the fields are left unchanged.

  1. Type (protocol) - select PPTP from the list;
  2. Connecting via - select our interface. By default, this is a Broadband connection (ISP);
  3. Server address - enter the server address specified in the contract. Also some providers call it VPN server address;
  4. The username is your login from the contract with the provider;

If your ISP does not use the three main types of Internet connection, then it uses dynamic or static type connections. Using dynamic type connection by a provider, you do not need to configure the Internet in your router, since given type connection is on the router by default. At static connection to the Internet, you need to ask the provider for the parameters: ip-address, subnet mask, default gateway and DNS server . Then we go to the Internet section.

In the window that opens, double-click on Broadband connection.

On the page that opens, in the field " Setting ip parameters - select manual". Then fill in the fields IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, DNS1, DNS2. You must learn these parameters from the provider, or they must be in the contract. After filling in the fields, save the settings by clicking on the "Apply" button.

ZyXEL Keenetic II Port Forwarding

.

Greetings! The next technical note will be devoted to entering the settings of ZyXEL routers through special address. Consider the login procedure itself and its options, as well as possible problems.

If you landed here by accident, just go to my.keenetic.net.

Login to settings

So everything ZyXEL models(4G, 4G II, II, Air, Extra, Giga, Lite, Omni, Ultra, Viva) have the same login mechanics in their web configurator. To enter the router settings, just open one of the following links in the browser:

my.keenetic.net - symbolic, for quick memorization
192.168.1.1 - digital classic, suitable for many others

Here you should not choose for a long time - to enter Zyxel routers Both addresses match. The first is the most reliable - it works even when the IP address has been manually changed. And already on the go it is transformed into the final one. The mechanism is the same as with visiting sites: you enter a domain, and after that it addresses you by the required IP to the server where the site is located.

After entering, it is not uncommon for the control panel to open immediately. But sometimes a page with an authorization form opens. Enter there:

admin- Username
1234 or admin– password (may be different, see footnote below)

For reference. All access data for your router is indicated on the bottom side of the sticker.


And after that you are already successfully sent to your personal account, where you can perform your actions. That's all, going into the router settings was not so difficult. But if suddenly any problems, read the next section.

If it doesn't come

I will list here the main reasons why you may not enter the Zixel settings. By the way, this applies to all other routers. My most common causes this problem:

  1. Connection problems. If you are connected by wire - see if the connection indicator is on, is there a network on the computer, or maybe the router is simply not connected to power? If via Wi-Fi, everything must also be connected. I mean, sometimes people just forget to connect to the router and are already trying to enter the settings.
  2. Restart your computer and modem - very often it helps not to understand the problem.
  3. Its one possible reason is that the settings for connecting to another network were initially set in your system. And in this case, you can be connected physically, but be in different networks. The best way solutions to get automatic settings. Actions: click right click By network connection near the clock - Network and Sharing Center ... - Change adapter settings. And then install everything as in the figure below (the method is suitable for all versions of Windows)


  1. The paragraph above will suffice in full for most problems. It just happens that people have special DNS servers set in the same settings. For example, from Google 8.8.8.8. Then the digital IP address will be opened, but the domain keenetic.net no, because Google DNS on your network does not know about it)

  1. Check your login address. And even better - just follow the link at the beginning of the article, everything will open normally there. Some people type mE.keenetic.net or mI.keenetic.net - but the correct one is MY. Another mistake - they try to enter the http://my.keenetic.net or https:// protocol - this is also not necessary. WWW is also not needed.
  2. If nothing comes out at all, try logging in from another device, for example, from a phone or tablet. If it opens there, then the settings on the first device were not in order. If it doesn’t come from others, it means that there is some kind of problem in the router.
  3. Try resetting Kinetics to factory settings.
