The Dlink DSL-2750B Verizon 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 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.

wifi wireless
This is the wifi setup page from your Dlink DSL-2750B Verizon router.

On this page the first setting that needs your attention is the Wireless Network (SSID). This is the name of your network. Make this name unique but avoid personal or router specific information. Learn more in our guide labeled How to Change your Wireless Name.

If you want to change the channel you would do that next. Look for the Channel (FCC). Open up the drop down list and choose the new channel you want to use. I recommend using only channels 1,6 or 11. Interested in learning why? Read the WiFi Channels guide.

Next, scroll down until you see the Security. The strongest version of security is WPA2. Find out what this is and what your other options are in our guide titled WEP vs. WPA.

Select Pre-Shared Key as the Authentication Method.

Below that is the Pre-Shared Key. This is the Internet password. It is very important that you create a strong password here. It doesn't matter how strong your encryption is if you have a weak password. I recommend using a minimum of 14 characters. This router looks like you need to use 16 characters in four different boxes. Learn how to create a strong password in our Choosing a Strong Password guide.

That's it, when you are happy with your security changes go ahead and click the 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.
