Orbi VPN setup generates 400 error

Orbi generates 400 error when trying to enable VPN.  Armor security not enabled.  Circles (not standalone) enabled.

Check the ENABLE VPN

tick UDP

set start port to 12973 (also tried1273)

tick UDP

set end port to 12974 (also tried 1273)

tick AUTO

SAVE generates the 400 error - Server is not able to handle this request

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance

    My VPN works.  I chose "All sites on the Internet & Home Network" rather than "Auto".

     

    Can you specify which Orbi router this is and the firmware release number?

    (Hint: "latest" is not helpful.)

     

    Thanks

      Sorry - I tried to paste this into the MODEL field on the blog form, but it turned out to be a pull down.

      Orbi RBR 40 ver 2.3.5.30 (No updates available)

       

      Tried your config - All Internet, etc - same reaction -

        Just checking (I am tediously "literal"), clicking the "Apply" button results in error 400, not "Save"?
