The Ericsson MBR L21 4G LTE 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

Have you considered using a VPN when you connect to the internet? A VPN is a great way to increase your security and anonymity while surfing.

We use and recommend NordVPN because not only is it the fastest VPN, it includes a new feature called Meshnet that makes securely sharing your home network super simple. 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 birthday deal!

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 Ericsson MBR L21 4G LTE

To get started configuring the Ericsson MBR L21 4G LTE WiFi settings you need to login to your router. If you are already logged in you can skip this step.

Change the WiFi Settings on the Ericsson MBR L21 4G LTE

router wifi security wireless
This is the wifi security page from your Ericsson MBR L21 4G LTE router.

This takes you to a page very similar to the one you see above.

  1. Make sure there is a checkmark in the Enabled box at the top of the page to the right of Enable Wi-Fi.
  2. Directly below that is the Wi-Fi Network (SSID). This is the name you give your network so you can identify it later on. Create a unique name here but avoid personal information. Find out more about SSIDs in our wireless names guide.
  3. If you are interested in changing your wireless Channel now is the time to do it. Find the drop down menu titled Channel and choose the channel you want to transmit on. To avoid partial overlap we strongly recommend that everyone use channels 1,6 or 11. Why? Find out in our WiFi Channels guide.
  4. Scroll down to the Security section and choose the type of security you want to use for your wireless network. We strongly advise the use of WPA2. Learn why in this WEP vs. WPA guide.
  5. In the Authentication Method drop down list choose the option of Pre-Shared Key. All this means is you will be using a password.
  6. Below that is the Pre-Shared Key or password for your Internet access. Go ahead and create a strong and complex password here. Learn why a strong password is important in our Choosing a Strong Password guide.
  7. To the right of that be sure you have selected ASCII. ASCII means you can use any key on the keyboard as part of your password. The other option is HEX and that seriously restricts what keys you can use. HEX is also a much more primitive password encryption method.
  8. The next option in the security section is the Encryption Algorithm. You can choose from TKIP and AES here. We recommend AES because it is the strongest and most up to date encryption method available right now.
  9. Finally, click the OK button to save your changes before you leave the wireless 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.
