Circle limits the speed of gig router by more than half.
I have fiber coming to my house so my internet speeds run 950Mbps download at the modem, into the router and to my computer via wifi UNTIL I enable Circle Parental controls. My speeds immediately sink...

You're not the only one in the forums that have had issues with circle reducing your speeds. Some have had luck with turning off ivp6 and rebooting the router. and more than 1 router has reports of the issue.
- seabass0118Sep 16, 2019InitiateI can confirm having terrible internet speed being my orbi to the point of my fiber-to-the-house gigabit service reports full 1k speed at the modem, but ip calling app suggesting that my network is bad enough to be inadequate for normal VoIP when alone in the house... Ridiculous!!!

Hi seabass0118, are you having a similar issue wherein you experience slower Internet speed when the Circle feature is enabled? If yes, the case is currently being worked on and has been reported to the engineering team. We will provide an update as soon as it is available.
