Don't hide DNS filtering rules on Flex H series
Hello,
When creating a DNS filtering rules, it in reality creates two (one for lan to wan, one for lan to Zywall). Could you not hide the second rule ? (Like it was the case on non H Flex series)

USG FLEX H - external block list also blocks traffic from WAN to ZyWALL
User @SiegfriedH found that USG FLEX H - external block list doesn't block traffic from WAN to ZyWALL. Since this is the current spec, we create an idea post for the enhancement.
H series router no hot fields in GUI
User @electsystech hopes the H series can support 'hot fields' in GUI. They don't want to drill down every time to make a selection and we don't want the mouse to be the sole method for object selection.
Example
Configuration migration tool support across different firewall hardware spec.
Currently, the configuration conversion tool only supports the models with similar hardware specifications. Due to hardware and port layout differences, migration across models with different architectures is not supported at this time.
Some users have requested a feature that allows transferring settings between firewalls with different hardware spec. — for example, from a smaller-port model (e.g., FLEX100) to a larger-port model (e.g., FLEX500H).

Add meshagent/MeshCentral to the App Patrol list
User @General99 requires to add meshagent/MeshCentral to the App Patrol list.

Use External Block List only option
Very simple really a option to use only External Block List for IP Reputation filter

SecuReporter Settings Support for USG FLEX H Series in NCC
Currently, SecuReporter configuration options are only available via the local GUI.
(Note: SecuReporter settings in NCC only apply to USG FLEX/ATP Series and USG LITE 60AX.)
Therefore, user @GiuseppeR would like to request support for SecuReporter configuration in the Web GUI in future.

Feature Request: Immediate DHCP Renewal for IP Passthrough Mode
Hello Zyxel Team and Community,
I’d like to submit a feature request regarding the behavior of the IP passthrough mode on Zyxel routers, specifically the NR5101.
Current Behavior: I have a setup where a Unifi UDM Pro is connected to the Zyxel router's LAN1/WAN port, with the Zyxel configured in IP passthrough mode. The issue arises when the mobile broadband connection reconnects, causing the ISP to assign a new public IP address. In this case, the Zyxel router obtains the new IP, but the UDM Pro does not pick up the change immediately and continues to use the old IP address until it renews the DHCP lease (which can take up to 10 minutes). This results in an internet connection downtime, which could be avoided.
From my understanding, the Zyxel router, being aware of the new public IP, does not relay this change to the downstream device immediately. Instead, it waits for the UDM Pro to request a DHCP renewal on its own. This behavior feels counterintuitive because the Zyxel router is already aware of the updated IP, and there’s a significant delay before the downstream device realizes it needs to renew.
Feature Request: Would it be possible to implement a feature (either as a default behavior or an optional setting) where the Zyxel router proactively relays the new IP assignment to the downstream device as soon as the mobile broadband reconnects? This could minimize the connection downtime that occurs when the ISP renews the public IP, as the downstream router would be immediately notified.
Reasoning: Given that cellular networks are inherently prone to occasional disruptions, I believe this behavior would benefit a significant portion of your users who rely on IP passthrough mode for their network configurations. Reducing the downtime during IP renewals would improve the overall user experience.
I’d appreciate feedback from the Zyxel team and the community on this suggestion. Thank you!
FlexH 1.36 uOS - missing period time check connectivity
Hello everyone,
on Nebula there is NOT the "Period" of time about checking WAN connectivity.
For example you want shorter time than the default 30 sec:
So the only way to modify it is via local UI
Accented characters in SSID
Hello,
I'm deploying NWA50BE in France in an installation using a router from Orange where it is possible to have accented characters in the SSID - e.g. <l'archiprêtré_invités>
It would be good to be able to use the same SSID on the AP.
Best.
