Circle Setup with R6700
I am trying to set up Circle for the first time, I installed the Android app for the inital install, it is asking me to scan the QR code on the bottom of the router and/or enter a 17 digit code. My router provides neither on the bottom. I can not install the Circle app without either of those. Any advice please?

I figured it out, there are 2 Circle apps, Circle 1st gen worked out for me.

I believe the router is using the newer SPC controls which use the newer Circle 1st Gen:

Something to keep in mind.
