I have 13 pro max, I could not connect my home router after latest ios updates. It says “weak security”. Apple support said you should configure the router to use WPA2 or WPA3 security type. Is there someone already encounter this problem?

If you don't want the weak security warning, change the security settings on the router to WPA2 AES or to WPA3. Exactly how you do that varies by router. If you don't have instructions for your router, do an Internet search for your router brand/model or if your router is supplied by your Internet service provider, check their website or their customer support.

And what happens when you do as Apple suggest and configure your home wifi to those settings?
