Loss of internet after enabling Circle by Disney on R7000
I enabled Circle by Disney on the R7000 but then started experiencing internet dropouts. I have rebooted the router and the problem goes away for about an hour before dropping the internet again. ...
Firmware 1.0.9.18 has circle agent 2.0.7.8, so that was updated.
Same thing with this firmware. Circle causes internet to slow down and eventually stall.
I just had my first incident of having to disable then re-enable Circle after serveral days of usage. Symptoms are some websites still work and others stop working.
Cause is that DNS resolution stops working.
We just got this router for the soul purpose of having some parental controls and Circle seemed like a good choice but I can't say impressed with it so far. Features are OK but if I have to restart it every few days I'm going to have to come up with something else.
Circle info:
Agent Version: 2.0.8.0
