Circle Blocking Known Sites
My household uses the free Circle program. Around a month or two ago, Circle started randomly blocking sites we've visiting many times before and/or sites that do not fit any sort of blocked category (my bank site today, school sites that my kids have used before, etc.). Most of the time, you can refresh about 15 times and/or clear the browser cache, exit and re-open and then it will suddenly work. This is a HUGE hassle. I updated the router firmware which did not seem to help. Does anyone know what's causing this issue? Does Circle get updated when the router firmware updates or is it the same version that was installed when we bought the router a couple of years ago?
I wish there was better support for Circle. If I go to the Circle website and indicate it's on my router, it brings me to Netgear and there doesn't really seem to be much support from Netgear.
Thanks for any help!

My circle filters/blocks most websites too. Under history, I do not see the sites to "allow" them. I have to set filter to "none" or disable circle to use internet. Firmware V2.3.5.12_1.0.8

Thanks. I do want to use Circle, so I don't want to disable it.
