Resetting Circle Admin Passcode

I set up Circle on NetGear from an old phone number that I no longer have access to, so I am not getting the reset passcode.  There are tons of the same types of posts in this Community, but the solved replies I've seen state that the solution was sent to one's Inbox, thus I am posting this hoping to get the resolution.  Thx

Re: Resetting Circle Admin Passcode

I have recently upgraded my phone and my number has changed so I am unable to get the PIN for my Circle app. Based on all the posts it looks like I need support to help, could someone help me?

Re: Resetting Circle Admin Passcode

I was not sure when the moderator would respond to the issue and I don't have much time. So I reset the router and installed the circle app again. I was able to have things working again. Hope this helps everyone who is reading this.

 

Just a comment: who would only allow for an sms to send a passcode to reset an app? We provide an email address with the registration. It should be pretty easy to have the system set up that the passcode can be reset or shared via email. This is incompetence at its best. Please have this corrected. Thanks.

Re: Resetting Circle Admin Passcode

Hi

I have written multiple times to the moderator. In my view, this Circle first generation app is a peice of junk.

 

Does not send any code to the number registered. Spent the entire weekend trying to fix it but no success.  

 

Probably the best solution is to reset the router and do it all over again.

 

Feedback to Netgear, dont sell Circle app bundled with the router.!!!!

Re: Resetting Circle Admin Passcode

Thank you very mutch,

 

But it's possible to have another code just to test anoter time, if no possible, I reinstall the router from factory setup. 

 

I have the firmware

V1.0.11.106_10.2.100

 

And this version of circle :

Informations sur le contrôle parental Circle

 

Version de l'agent: 2.1.8.9
Version de la base de données APP: 1.3.1

 

APP :

Circle Home Circle Media Incorporated 2.1.10

 

And other remark, I don't know if on R7000 netgear tourter normaly I have circle Disney or not. I don't see it in the app

Thank you

Same issue. Can not get a passcode for Circle. No one helps and the support won’t let me talk with anyone.

Re: Resetting Circle Admin Passcode

Hello seana, I see your message today, just know that : “I try to resolve the problem with multiple test, reset, code from support. It’s always the same”. at a moment you must reset the router the same (poor programmer ). It’ unstable and your router is very slow. The functionality for paid application are wrong. I just reset last Friday to test another time, and for two days I use the router without this both the route is running very well ( not slow, disconnection, ... nothing. Very nice. Use another software for the parentale control and don’t install Bightwank all contrôle are in the interface of the router . But if you are an IT men like me and you do some night without sleep to try to resolve this issue, I see that last Friday in same time the router is compatible with open source firmware....
