What router do you have?
The CM1200 that you put is a modem only device, not a router.

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.
