ORBI AX with Circle integration/compatibility

Note: I also posted this on the Circle forum but since this relates specifically to the Orbi AX units (RBK7xx and RBK8xx series), I'm cross posting it here as well.

 

For those of us who use the standalone Circle's Parental device with our Orbi units (as Netgear hasn't added Circle integration with the Orbi AX units yet), Circle has has updated their router compatibility with the following information. It looks like the RBK7xx (AX420000) series are compatible with Circle Plus under compatibility mode but NOT the RBK8xx (AX6000) series at this time. :(

⚠︎ Orbi RBR750, RBK752, and RBK753 (Only compatible with Circle Home Plus, Use Compatibility Mode)
⚠︎ Orbi RBR850, RBK852, and RBK853 (We are investigating issues with these routers)
