I can’t tell if WAN is Wireless Area Network or Wide Area Network.

WAN = Wide Area Network
WLAN = Wireless Area Network

Wide area network. It’s basically the “internet” side of the router.

I know what a Wide Area Network is. I’m just saying the acronym is ambiguous since the advent of WiFi

Not really. WAN has always been WAN. Wireless has always been WLAN.
