You need to load firmware V2.1.2.18 for the RBR50 and RBS50 for Circle and wired backhaul. It was pulled because there are some major issues for some users. A fix is supposedly coming.

    Well up until Saturday I would have recommended you upgrade/downgrade/sidegrade to the 2.1.x firmware but I started having wifi and reboot issues. So unless you are willing to put with some stability issues to get the Circle integration I would wait until NetGear releases a new firmware.

        Purchased RBR50 yesterday and spent several hours last night and tonight trying to get Circle running.  Finally found this message.  Thanks for providing and will wait for properly working firmware.
