Does the Android app work apart from Anywhere Access?
In theory, Anywhere Access gets turned on by default:

Note the bit about managing a router with Anywhere Access.
If you find that Anywhere Access is not enabled, you could try a "factory reset".

Bit of a nuisance. You can backup your settings – always a good idea anyway – before you try that. Just in case it fails and you want to restore the settings.

I've similar issue with my RAX48 router after latest router firmware upgrade (V1.0.11.112} and everything else seems to be working ok. I can't seem to make it enable anymore.

Yes. The Android app seems to be having another bout of "coding covid".
About a month back they fixed a previous bug. It took a month for that to happen.
But that fix then went and broke the iOS version. You can't win.
