Broadband security
Hi, I have a warning on my phone on the broadband settings page which reads "weak security" and "WEP is not considered secure". It says to configure the router to use WPA2 or WPA3 but I have no idea what to do. Can anyone advise?

Re: Broadband security
@Garry1308 this is a coomon question however there is nothing to worry about unless you have manually changed the WiFi security level on your Sky hub.
The black Sky hubs default to using WPA2 -PSK which is still considered as secure. The newer white Sky WiFi Max hub defaults to WPA3T. The T stands for transitional which allows older WPA2 devices to connect while wpa3 devices have additional protection.

Apple devices have a tendency to throw this message out from time to time.
If you forget network and rejoin it should clear the message.
