Can I get WEP on my router?
I have set up my router and have internet and all, but I want to set up a WEP as my old nintendo DS wants a WEP so I can get some sweet pokemon from old events. Is there anyway to set up a wep or is this router too new?

What router do you have?
The CM1200 that you put is a modem only device, not a router.It is an AC1900 Smart Wifi Router, Model R7000
wep was supersceded by wpa, and then that was by wpa2 and now wpa3.
Its unsecure. Not even close to secure.
If you need to get a device online you could enable the guest mode on the r7000 and leave it broadcasting on the open because that's basically what wep is doing.
