“Weak Security” Wifi after iOS 14 update

It would have been SO helpful if you had bothered to read any of the posts in the thread that you posted to, especially the one right above yours, but to save you the trouble of scrolling up here is the answer again:

If it says Weak Security, that means that your router is not configured correctly. iOS 14 checks and displays that message if your router is not using the most up-to-date security. Note that your router has always had weak security, you just didn’t know about it until now.

I had the same problem. Apple recommends changing the security settings to WPA/WPA2 & AES. I logged on to my modem/router to check my settings and my security was ALREADY on WPA/WPA2 & AES which was the setting that Apple recommended here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202068 to get rid of this “weak security” notification. THE RESOLUTION to this problem: Simply change the name of you router (instead of using the name it came with for example, linksys or netgear) by logging into your router settings (refer to your router’s user manual). After I changed the name of my router the notification went away.

WiFi, weak security

It’s such a shame that people don’t bother to read other messages in a thread before posting the same question that has been answered dozens of times.

This is NOT an iPhone problem; it is a problem with your router settings.

A "Weak Security" notification means that your Wi-Fi router is not configured correctly. There is a new feature in iOS 14 that checks and displays a message if your router is not using the most up-to-date security. Note that your router has always had weak security, you just didn’t know about it until now.
