The AirTies Air5452 router is considered a wireless router because it offers WiFi connectivity. WiFi, or simply wireless, allows you to connect various devices to your router, such as wireless printers, smart televisions, and WiFi enabled smartphones.

Use a VPN Instead

Have you considered using a VPN instead of forwarding a port? For most users, a VPN is a much simpler and more secure choice than forwarding a port.

We use and recommend NordVPN because not only is it the fastest VPN, it includes a new feature called Meshnet that makes forwarding a port no longer necessary for most applications. With NordVPN Meshnet, you can connect to your devices from anywhere in the world, completely secure, over a highly encrypted VPN tunnel.

When shopping for a VPN, make sure that they meet the following criteria:

  • Your VPN provider should have a no-logs policy. This means that they do not keep any logs of any kind.
  • Make sure that your VPN provider has lots of exit nodes all around the world.
  • Check that your VPN will not affect your speed.
  • Verify that your VPN provider uses WireGuard as the underlying protocol.
  • Many people prefer a VPN provider that is not based in the United States.

This is the list of requirements that we used when we were shopping around for a VPN provider. There are lots of free, shady VPN providers out there that we looked at and dismissed.

Based in Panama, using diskless servers, and with over 6,100 servers in 61 countries, we can safely say that NordVPN satisfies all of these requirements.

NordVPN is the fastest VPN!

Once you've set up your NordVPN account on multiple computers and enabled Meshnet, you can seamlessly access all of your devices as if they were on the same network. You don't even have to log in to your router. It's very simple.

Every time you click on one of our affiliate links, such as NordVPN, we get a little kickback for introducing you to the service. Think of us as your VPN wingman.

This is the wifi setup page from your AirTies Air5452 router.

You should now be on a page that looks similar to the one you see above.

  • Channel - This is the first thing on this page that you can change if you like. The channel can be changed if you feel you are not getting the reception you think you should. In the United States there are only 11 channels to choose from. Of these 11 channels there are only three that, if everyone used them, don't overlap. Choose from channel 1,6, and channel 11. For more information on why you should only use these three channels, check out our guide titled WiFi channels.
  • Primary SSID - The SSID is another name for your network name. This is the name that identifies you from other networks. This name should not contain any personal information. For more information on what a SSID is, take a look at our guide entitled Wireless name.
  • Enabled - Be sure to check the Enabled box next to the name you just created.
  • Security - Find the drop down box labeled Security and choose the type of security you want to use. We suggest using WPA2. This is the strongest security available today. For more information on the different security protocols, check out our guide titled WEP vs. WPA.
  • Password - Use this box to create a password for your network. This is extremely important to the security of your network. Do not use personal information in this password. Don't use any words that can be found in a dictionary. Do use symbols, capital letters, and numbers. For help in creating a strong and memorable password check out our guide called How to choose a strong password.
  • Click the Save button when you are done.

That's it, you are finished.

Possible Problems when Changing your WiFi Settings

After making these changes to your router you will almost definitely have to reconnect any previously connected devices. This is usually done at the device itself and not at your computer.
