Model: Archer AXE95  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.6 Build 20241203 rel.64133(5553)

Hello! I am trying to enable decent security for the guest network on my router, however the only option that appears in the drop down is "No Security" or "Encryption". It does not give me the option to choose WPA2 or 3 like on the ain network. Why is this, or can you please tell me how to get this enabled. I am doing this from the main login account, no the phone app.

 

I ran into this because I was trying to connect a MyQ garage door opener and after much wrangling determined it could not handle spaces or many special characters in the wifi password of all things! (What is this.... 1985 ?!?! )  So I took all the spaces and spec. chars out of my guest network password and it worked, but I worry about the security level with simply "Encryption" set.

 

Thanks for any help you can provide!!

  @Sporktooth Encryption is showing wpa3 on newer clients and wpa2 on older clients.
