							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.
