Apply button in port forwarding does nothing

Firmware 1.0.1.122

 

Advanced Setup>>Port Forwarding/Port Triggering>>Add Custom Service

 

Service Name: Server

Protocol: TCP

External Port Range: 28967

Use Same Port Range for Internal Port: Yes

Internal IP Address: 192.168.1.2

 

Select from currently attached devices is empty when I suspect there should be something there.

 

Click Apply, nothing happens. 

Attempted in Brave Browser (chrome based) , internet explorer, and microsoft edge. Apply button always does nothing. Rebooting router does not fix. Trying other ports or IPs does not work. If service name is left blank error will appear saying Invalid Service name when clicking apply, otherwise apply does nothing. Cant do server hosting.
