Hello there, orestes1012. Thank you for posting your question to the Apple Support Communities. We’re happy to help you with managing the Wi-Fi connections that you use with your iPhone.
From what we gather, you are seeing a privacy message that the network you are connected with has weak-security. We understand that a message like this can be concerning and we’re happy to help you with the available options.
To get started, please review the following Apple Support article:
Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points - Apple Support
According to the article: “If your Apple device shows a privacy warning or weak-security warning about a Wi-Fi network, that network could expose information about your device. Apple recommends connecting to Wi-Fi networks that meet or exceed the security standards in this article.”.
If you are seeing this message regarding a network that you own, the article above explains which settings you can manage to make the network more secure. If this is not a network that you manage, we’d suggest contacting the network administrator or using a different network.
We hope this information helps you find a solution.
