Change WEP setting

Your router is using the old WEP security standard, which is both insecure and unstable.

WEP was phased out years ago and:

 

  • Can cause connection drops and latency spikes,
  • Is not optimised for Wi-Fi Calling,
  • Slows down performance on newer iPhones that expect WPA2 or WPA3.

How do I change it?

The Q and Sky Broadband Hubs use WPA2-PSK by default, and the Max Hub uses WPA3-T

 

Apple devices seem to detect the encryption type incorrectly.
