The "Enable Smart Parental Controls on Your Router" nag ad pops up EVERY time I login to my router.

    Ever since I applied the V1.0.4.98_10.0.71 firmware update, I am presented with a ""Enable Smart Parental Controls on Your Router" pop-up every time I login. There is no checkbox to disable this Circle ad. I never had Circle, nor will ever need any parental controls. My parental controls are  disabled and have never been enabled.

 

1. Re-applied firmware 

2. Tried 4 different browsers

3. Cleared my cache for every browser.

 

     Does anybody know how to stop this Circle nag ad?
