I'm waiting on feedback as well. Christian send me a new activation code however I see no place to input that in the Circle app. I sent him feedback and waiting on his return. I'm trying to validate a possible problem with circle and Facebook however can't do that until I get circle enabled fully. Noticed that on two different devices, FB content wasn't loading or being updated in days after I had started using Circle and PC. After Circle was disabled or using a different wifi router, FB started udpating.

Thanks for providing the method to disable Parental Controls. It is now "disabled" on the web interface and "off" on the Orbi app.
Parental Controls now appears on the Basic Tab menu and on the Advanced Tab Security menu. (It did not appear before even though the app thought it was enabled.)
I do not mind that PC shows up on the menu. The important thing is that the app is no longer bugging me to "complete my setup" and to put devices into groups, etc.

Kewl, glad you got that disabled.
Now if I can just get mine setup with Circle again. If not, then I'll disable it and move on. Theres some app and FW tuning needed. :smileyfrustrated:
