How to configure router to WPA2 or WPA3 Security Type

Model: Archer C2300  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 2.0

Since our Apple devices updated to the IOS 14 software, we are now getting a weak secuirty.

 

It shows WPA/WPA2 (TPIK) is not considered secure.  If this is your WiFi network, configure the router to use WPA2 (AES) or WPA3 Security type.  

 

The router said it was up to date for updates.  If I could get some guidance on how to change, I would greatly appreacite it.

 

Thanks

@Legend64 

 

Log in to the router, go to Advanced > Wireless > Wireless Settings, and make the changes below, at the end of step 7 do the same thing on the 5G page and switch to WPA2-PSK AES there.:

@Tony In my wireless setting, it doesn't show anything regarding WPA2 or WPA3. Only can rename network name and password

@naavin You're using the Tether app I bet? You need to directly login to the router and not use the app...

@terae Hello...we had the same issue today...what you need to do is go into System Preferences/Network/Advanced, then delete out all the old wireless network names you have in the list under "Preferred Networks". And delete out the CURRENT wireless name/network you are now using with the less safe security type. 

 

Then, re-enter your current network in the list with the more secure security type. We unplugged the router/modem afterwards just to "reset" everything. I don't know if that did anything or not but we now accomplished our goal.

 

Hope that works for you!
