The Inteno X5669A 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.

This is an easy way in for someone wanting on your network without your permission. We strongly recommend that you choose the option of Disabled for the setting of Enable WSC. For the Enable Build-In Registrar choose the option of Disabled also. Then use the drop down list next to Set WSC AP Mode to choose Unconfigured. Read our What is WPS Guide for more info on this subject.

Scroll down the page until you see the heading of Manual Setup AP. The first setting here is titled Select SSID. Simply choose the SSID you created on the previous page from the drop down list.

A little farther down the page is a setting titled WPA Pre-Shared Key. This is the password you will use to gain access to your network. It is a good idea to create a strong password here of at least 14-20 characters. Learn more tips by reading our guide titled Choosing a Strong Password.

The last thing to change is the setting titled WPA Encryption. This is the method your router uses to encrypt your private data while it is traveling. The most secure encryption today is AES.

That's it. Simply click the Save/Apply button near the bottom of the page 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.
