Hi


I have the following (warning) when I connect to my home Wifi and do not know what to do. I log in to my broadband router and there is no option that I can select to adhere to what Apple security standard is requesting.

Upgrade your Router:

The protocol you are using for your WiFi is WPA, which is not secure. WPA2 is considered insecure now too. So use WPA2/WPA3, as it is more secure. Older devices may not run WP3 encryption. So, upgrade your router to one that is dual band and has WPA3 encryption security.
