Orbi AX is the only product models not supporting Circle at this time.

I purposely bought what I thought was the top-of-the-line mesh network, but I have lost the ability to implement parental controls which I previously had with my old setup. Or am I missing something? Please advise...thank you!
I purchased the same router and was surprised by the lack of parental controls. I spoke with customer service on another matter and they informed me that parental controls will be added to the RBR850 in a future firmware update. It was expected to have already been released, but due to the remote operations under the current pandemic, the project and release has been delayed. Let's hope it's soon, as the longer it goes the more unfettered access our children will be exposed to.
