The title pretty much says it all. I cursed and retried adding my new Bridge Pro for an hour before giving up because it would never find the new bridge. Later I had an epiphany and remembered the Private Relay feature in iOS that has messed up authentication features on other situations. I turned off Private Relay, and all was good. I hope this saves someone else some grief migrating to the new bridge.

Editing to add instructions:

• Open Settings
• Select the top item that shows your name and avatar
• Select iCloud
• Scroll down to iCloud+ Features and select Private Relay
• Click the button to turn it off, it will give you the option to turn off, or turn off until tomorrow. Select either.
