R6400 Port Forward issues V1.0.1.12_1.0.11

The Release Notes for V1.0.1.12_1.0.11 indicate that they enhanced port forwarding:

If you upgraded from a previous version, then you may want to perform a factory reset to wipe out any incompatible configuration settings left over from the previous version. Then re-enter the port forwarding settings by hand. Do not restore from a backup configuration file because it, too, can be incompatible with the new version.
If this doesn't work, then try downgrading to an older version. You can find firmware here (link). Be sure to perform another factory reset after installation.

Perfect! Backing up to v1.0.1.6_1.0.4 worked! The interface is not as clean, but whacha gonna do?
I did try a factory reset on the latest firmware, which did not work.
