D04. What’s the difference between new registration flow and previous registration?
What’s the advantage of new registration flow over the previous registration flow?
1. In new registration flow, the registration is processed within device’s WebGUI. In previous registration
flow, the registration is processed through hyperlink to myZyXEL.com in a separate browser window.
2. The new registration flow is easier to use for both experienced customers and new customers.
In the new registration flow, it’s no longer necessary to open another web browser window to register
your device. Instead, the registration flow is embedded in device’s WebGUI.
Furthermore, customer is no longer required to manually input the MAC of the device because the MAC
will be automatically sent to myZyXEL.com during the registration flow.
