I have had the same issues.  I have a 250/MB connection and after I turn Circle on the throughput will drop to 125/MBs.  After a few days the degregation will have dropped me down to 10/MBs.  I can get back to 125/MBs if I reboot the router but no more then ever that with Circle enabled.  Are there any solutions to this problem?

I have this same problem with my R8000! This is relevant because I was about to send it back and buy a R7000p... But I see it hasthe exact same issue... internet speeds get slower and slower until I reboot the router.... running Circle.... I love the router and need a fix bad.
