R8000 with Circle
I use Circle Home app for parental controls with my router R8000. The internet speed is drastically reduced when I use Circle. My internet speed without circle is 300+ MBPS. but with cirle it goes...
Hi Circleuser, welcome to the community! We recommend updating to the latest firmware found here and do a factory reset as described here. Also, does the issue persist on all your devices (wired and wireless)? Do you have any QoS features enabled as well?

Thanks for the reply. Yes, the firmware is the latest. The QOS is not enabled. But if I disable Circle and restart the router I get 300 + MBPS speed.
Yes, the slow down is there on both WiFi and Ethernet connections. Max speed I experienced with circle enabled is around 100 mbps.
Factory reset is done as well. No change in speed.
- I’m experiencing the same issue. 400Mbps drops to 100Mbps with Circle enabled
Disney Circle by default caping the speed at 100 mbps. This is their disclaimer, due to the wirless protocol they use. It's bit strange why they are not finding a workaround for this yet.
No, there is no solution to this yet. Please work with disney circle and remove the speed caping at 100 mbps.
