PROBLEM CORRECTIVE ACTION
I cannot
access the
ZyWALL.
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 no console session running.
Use the ZyWALL’s WAN IP address when configuring from the WAN. Refer to the
instructions on checking your WAN connection.
Use the ZyWALL’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 the chapter on
remote management for details.
Your computer’s and the ZyWALL’s IP addresses must be on the same subnet for LAN
access.
See the following section to check that pop-up windows, JavaScripts and Java
permissions are allowed.
