My Wi-Fi claims weak security My iPad and iPhone claim WPA/Wpa2 (TKIP) is not considered secure. If this is your Wi-fi network configure the router to use WPA2 (AES) or WPA3 security type. I do t know why this has come into play when I never changed any settings. What can I do.

"Weak Security" message re Wi-Fi Security in modem/router that iPhone uses Apple has a message in iPhone's Wi-Fi settings stating that:- "WPA/WPA (TKIP) is not secure". It states that you should reconfigure your modem/router to use "WPA2 (AES) or WPA3". 2. My current setting is:- "WPA+WPA2 PSK". 3. I also have available in the modem/router:- " (a) WPA2 PSK, (b) WPA2 and (c) WPA+WPA2". Is my CURRENT setting secure/adequate enough ?

"Weak Security" on iPhone for my wifi network, but it's using WPA2-Personal My iPhone will connect to my wifi (ASUS RT-N66R router) fine with no warnings, but some time later it will show as "Weak Security." The notice tells me to use WPA2 (AES) or WPA3. My router does not have WPA3, but it is definitely using WPA2 and AES: Why does the "Weak Security" warning come up? Does it indicate something wrong, or is iOS just wonky in how it detects network security?
