You will need to go to the online router configuration website (192.168.x.x - depending on your router brand) to see if there are better/more current security settings available. You can also contact your ISP and ask about the available security settings. It could be that the router is too old to have current options, so the other option is to replace the modem/router.

By the way, you've had "weak" security for some time, just just didn't know it - the new iOS now gives you a warning.
