  • I'm not sure I get what you are asking. The Zyxel device is a router correct? Can't you just have your mobile phone and laptop connect to the wireless network?

  • Yes. Zyxel is router. I cannot connect from my mobile phone or laptop, because I get internet from my old PC. So I would like to do it via router if it is possible.

  • I get internet from my old PC, your old PC provides you internet? I don't think that's possible. Usually, you have a modem (that provides an internet connection) which plugs into a router (the Zyxel device). The router creates a wireless signal that your Network Card in your PC picks up and uses to connect to the internet. The router should be broadcasting a signal that your phone and laptop can detect. It should be named something similar to your router brand name (SSID).
