Disney circle passcode reset text not receiving
Got a new iphone and didnt think anything about signing out of circle on old phone which has now been reset. Trying to get myself back into my circle and ask for text message to send code but nothing...

Here's whatworked for me on an R7000:
-Backup your router configuration.
-Do a factory reset on the router.
-Set up the router as if it were new, and enable circle.
-Use the circle app to go through the circle configuration. It won't ask for a passcode now since it "thinks" that the router is new. (after setup is complete, use the app to obtain your passcode, even though you probably won't need it)
-Leave the circle app open on your phone while you reload your original configuration file.
-Once your router reboots and your phone connects to the wifi, use the circle app and select "reconnect to circle".
-Now your connected to circle without needing the passcode and you didn't lose your router configuration.
Good luck
