The Hitron Technologies CVE30360 ZON 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 faster than ever 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.

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.

This is the wifi setup page from your Hitron Technologies CVE30360 ZON router.

This takes you to the page you see here. In the box labeled Wireless Network (SSID) enter the name you want to give your wireless network. This name is your network identification. It doesn't really matter what you enter here, but we recommend avoiding personal information. Learn more by reading our Wireless Names Guide.

Next is the Channel. There are three channels to use in the given wireless spectrum. Make sure you are on either channel 1,6, or 11. Learn why you should only be using these three channels by reading our WiFi Channels Guide.

The next section is titled WPS. We strongly recommend against using WPS. It is an easy way into your network for a hacker. Use the box to the right of WPS to uncheck the Enabled box. Learn more about WPS by reading our What is WPS Guide.

Below that is the Security section. To the right of that heading use the drop down box to choose WPA2. This is the best choice, to learn why, read our WEP vs. WPA guide.

Set the Authentication Method to Pre-Shared Key.

After that is the Pre-Shared Key. This is the password you use to restrict access to your network. We recommend using at least 14-20 characters here. Don't forget to add some symbols, numbers, and capital letters. Learn more by clicking this link.

The last thing you may want to change is the Encryption Algorithm. There are three choices here. TKIP, AES, or both. We recommend the most secure, and newest, choice of AES.

Once you are finished, click the Apply button before you exit.

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.
