Google Account re-auth broken?

Basically, for my phone, turning OFF WIFI fix it. I was able to create the Google mail account without problems.

This posting regarding the developer release of 8.1 addressed this issue on my LUMIA 1020 that just received the 8.1 upgrade:

Resolved!! For me atleast.
Check your date and time-settings (i.e. current time and date). Mine were resetted during the upgrade (or with me trying to get the correct format for the clock) which probably caused Google to be a bit upset and deny the request.

Thank you so much!!! I haven't even realised that the date was wrong!! <3
