Autocomplete not working on new Zyxel “H” series firewalls

tekkie

Hi everyone,

On the new Zyxel firewalls (the “H” series), the autocomplete function no longer works properly.

When creating or editing firewall rules, you now always have to use the mouse to select objects, even if they already exist in your object lists. Previously, you could simply type and jump between fields using the keyboard, and autocomplete would handle the rest — which made creating and adjusting rules much faster.

At the moment, this slows down configuration work quite a bit. Would be great if the old autocomplete behavior could be restored in a future firmware update.

Best,
Valentin
