2.4ghz wifi no longer secure on C6300v2 router
I have the C6300v2 Netgear router with 2.4 and 5 ghz wifi networks set up. Until two days ago, both networks were secured with a password. Now, only the 5 is secure. I've been trying to use the ni...

Trying it again on a different laptop, plugged into the router via ethernet, and using both chrome and edge, the results are the same. Passcode will not save to the 2.4 wifi and it remains unsecure. I also tried 192.168.100.1 with the same result - unsecured still.

I'm actually wondering if its truly unsecured or if its your device warning you about it. apple is good at giving people notices when their devices are only wpa2 devices and not wpa3
Except it is showing unsecure on my Lenovo running windows 11 and my Dell running windows 10
