Hello,
After reading through the article is appears that Netgear is still using Circle v1 and not getting the benefits of Cirvle v2 software. I am just leaving the system disabled and will continue to use my hardware box Circle v2. I got it with lifetime subscription deal right around the new year. I am a long time user of their servicve. With Home Circle Plus I have more options for mobile devices that leave the home.

Cirlce Home Wins (wish it had 1000 Mbps)
Faster connection: Circle Home Plus comes with an upgraded gigabit Ethernet port while the Circle with Disney (1st generation) device utilizes a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port, and a 802.11 b/g/n wireless card that is limited to "Wireless N" speeds over 2.4GHz. Unlike Circle with Disney this model can handle gigabit internet speeds and should not inhibit the speed in your home.
