Orbi RBR50 - Cannot Enable Anywhere Access in iOS App

Was able to successfully setup Orbi RBR50 in the office.

 

The app is able to login to the Router/Mesh Network and able to see everything correctly.

 

However, when I go in App->Settings->Anywhere Access

 

And to toggle on the "Enable Anywhere Access" option

 

it will pop up a window and says "Some error occurred while enabling/disabling Anywhere Access"

 

There is no further detail.  Anyone know what is going on?

 

Hardware version: BRB50v2

Firmware: v2.7.4.24

 

APP: iOS

Version: Latest (2.31.0.195 ??  Just downloaded it yesterday)

It seems it is because the new iOS Hides your IP and limits Tracking.

 

Just disable those 2 options on the WIFI Network and it enables fine.
