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.
See this Apple support article for how to configure it correctly—>Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points - Apple Support, specifically the section headed Security. And don't forget to configure your range extenders (if any) also!

If your router is less than 5 years old you probably don’t need a new one. You need the manual for your router, which you can find on the manufacturer’s website. Referring to the manual:
You should only have to do this once.
Change the security protocol on your router.
How do I do that?
Okay I need some one to break this support article down in lay man terms because we don’t understand it. Do I need a new router?
Thank you
