Seems like the values your entering and saving is good up to the point where you select the Apply button and then you get the error.
I would try a factory reset and setup from scratch.
Clear out all browser caches prior to setup and walking the wizard...

I have not performed a factory reset at this time - hoping that's a last resort.

What browser are you using?
Be sure to clear out all browser caches before entering into the RBRs web page.
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?

Factory reset did the trick - ended up being not as painful as I thought and got everything online and IPs assigned as directed. Thanks so much for your support!

Please mark your thread as solved so others will know.
Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
