Okay, this is why it shows on my IPhone IOS 14 and not on my wife’s IPhone IOS 12 . So probably I will ignore it for the time being, till I update my Router. Thank you for your time and for your help.

Best Regards.

Your iPhone is not "causing" this, it is notifying you that your Wi-Fi network has weak security.


If you want to enhance the security of your access point/router and it does not support WPA2 (AES) or WPA3, you would need to purchase a new Wi-Fi access point/router.


The message is only informational; it does not affect usage of the network in any way, it's just letting you know the security is weak.
