@Terrileigh1 Apple have a warning about security as the router is not offering a wpa3 secured connection.

 

. Sky hubs in common with well over 95% of routers in use only offer wpa2 wifi security. The new standard is indeed better but requires new chips so perhaps not surprisingly Sky are not junking 6 million working routers. Wpa2-psk is considered reasonably secure so unless you are a target of an organised crime syndicate or have upset a state security agency there is little to worry about.. 

If you want a WPA3 compatable router Sky will offer you their Wifi Max router at an additional fee but given almost certainly your other devices only support wpa2 it is not going to make much difference.

@kumar007 as posted earlier these security warnings are nothing to worry about as the page you are trying to connect to can only be accessed from inside your network.
