Verizon Internet security

My apple devices are now telling me my Verizon internet is not secure since it is WEP instead of WPA2 personal (AES) security.  

What does that mean?  How do I make it secure?

That depends on what router you use.

You can change the security from WEP which is terrible to WPA2 via your router manual.

Look your version up and follow the instructions.

Good Luck

WEP security has been broken for a while.  It can be broken in only a few minutes, leaving you vulnerable.
