The Axesstel MV600 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.

Wireless Name

Your wireless network needs to have a name to uniquely identify it from other wireless networks. If you are not sure what this means we have a guide explaining what a wireless name is that you can read for more information.

Wireless Password

An important part of securing your wireless network is choosing a strong password.

Wireless Channel

Picking a WiFi channel is not always a simple task. Be sure to read about WiFi channels before making the choice.

Encryption

You should almost definitely pick WPA2 for your networks encryption. If you are unsure, be sure to read our WEP vs WPA guide first.

Login To The Axesstel MV600

To get started configuring the Axesstel MV600 WiFi settings you need to login to your router. If you are already logged in you can skip this step.

Find the WiFi Settings on the Axesstel MV600

This is the status page from your Axesstel MV600 router.

After you have finished logging into the Axesstel MV600 router you need to click the option in the left sidebar labeled Basic Wireless Settings under the heading of Setup.

Change the WiFi Settings on the Axesstel MV600

Unfortunately we don't have this screenshot for you. If you have this router please help us out. Click this link to learn more.

All I can do is give you my best educated guess as to what will be on that page. No matter how many setting there are on this page there are only three, possibly four you need to worry about. They are:

  1. The SSID or Network Name. This is the name you give your network to identify it. We suggest making a unique name you won't forget. Learn all about these in our wireless names guide.
  2. The Security or Encryption of the network. This should be set to WPA2 for the strongest encryption. Read our guide titled WEP vs. WPA to learn more. If you don't have this WPA2 option we strongly recommend updating your firmware so you can have this much more advanced form of security.
  3. The Pre-Shared Key or Passphrase. There are several more names this goes by but it means the same thing. This is referring to the Internet password you use to access your network. Make sure this password is at least 14 to 20 characters in length. Learn how to do this and keep it memorable by reading our Choosing a Strong Password guide.
  4. The Channel may or may not be on this page. This is not mandatory for a strong network but helps with speed and reception. If you wish to change the channel we recommend only using channels 1, 6, or 11. Find out why in our WiFi Channels guide.

After those settings have been set to how you want them, go ahead and save your changes. Most likely this is an Apply button at the bottom of the page.

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.
